FWIW, I have been doing exactly this in the past few months, importing planet data using osm2pgsql.
It takes about 18 hours to import the whole planet onto a E5-1650v3 server, with 256GB RAM and a 1TB SSD. 128GB RAM would certainly have sufficed. The number of cores doesn't actually matter much. I've never seen it use more than 8 cores, even when I ask it to use far more.
