The number of Browser Users (BUs) you can run in parallel on one machine varies with the amout of RAM and the CPU speed.
For a 3GB RAM system that runs at 2.5 GHz or faster. for sure will get 100+ BUs after doing the "machine adjusments" that are in the documentation.
As ever, "your mileage will vary."
However, if you are running on a very large machine, e.g. on that is "in the cloud" then if you have enough RAM you can amplify the capacity by using multiple signon users. An 8-user system with enough RAM wil then yield at least 600 simutaneos sessions. We have had 1,0000 BUs running with no problem.
