350 databases :-O gobsmacked.
You don't mean u have set 100 simultanious connections in the DSN for 1 access database do you? Cozz it will fall over and die horribly if you have. If you mean total connections for the server, then this is totally down to the power of your server, lots of memory helps. When you set a low number of connections (i.e 1) coldfusion queues up the requests and processes them one at a time when the database is free.
