Server sizing question

I have about 10k clients, 1 SUM/SEC, 1 DB server and 2 relays. All running 2008. I am planning my upgrade to server 2008 r2 for all but the DB server. Anyone have any additional recommendations? I was just going to do the relays first because that is the easy part. But should I take the SUM away from the SEC and make my relays also give out the updates(SUM)? What else would get the CPU down on the SEC? It is just higher than I would like.

Thanks,

Jason

jak,
I really appreciate the response. After talking to Sophos support and another Sophos user I am able to say that my server levels at back at a good place. But I still have the issue with all 3 of my servers running server 2008. I also didn't mention that all 3 are also virtualized. good/bad? Right now I think my current config is good.
On the Management server mgntsvc.exe uses the most cpu when it hits.
SEC is 4.7
Would you advise to just upgrade the servers to R2 rather than do a replace. I haven't done that on a production server before. But it looks really straight forward.
