i guess the theoretical limit on a 32bit system is 4,294,967,296 (2^32), but my first question would be do you need unlimited groups, or unlimited roles? roles being the classification of user where actual ACL permissions are attached (role "a" can access the users::add method, but role "b" is not, etc)... a user could have an unlimited amount of roles.
