Ummmm.... actually I have a production server that has held around 1000 concurrent users on OWA. HOWEVER, these are the **lowest** of all _low end users_.......
Server is a Compaq 8500, 8GB RAM, 8 Proc, on a SAN. Users=966 OWA loadtime=0 secs->10/21/2002 11:14:15 AM Sliding Ave=0 secs Running Ave=0.17 secs Users=988 OWA loadtime=0 secs->10/21/2002 11:15:16 AM Sliding Ave=0 secs Running Ave=0.17 secs Users=988 OWA loadtime=0 secs->10/21/2002 11:16:17 AM Sliding Ave=0 secs Running Ave=0.17 secs Users=1006 OWA loadtime=0 secs->10/21/2002 11:17:18 AM Sliding Ave=0 secs Running Ave=0.17 secs Users=1006 OWA loadtime=0 secs->10/21/2002 11:18:19 AM Sliding Ave=0 secs Running Ave=0.17 secs Users=983 OWA loadtime=0 secs->10/21/2002 11:19:20 AM Sliding Ave=0 secs Running Ave=0.17 secs Users=983 OWA loadtime=0 secs->10/21/2002 11:20:21 AM Sliding Ave=0 secs Running Ave=0.17 secs Before putting this server into production, we investigated the "maximum number of users" - the numbers differ depending on who ran the tests. So, assuming everyone is right, you can have between 200 - 800 users (depending on who wrote the docs). Again, let me stress exactly how low end, low stress, low impact, low volume, low EVERYthing our users are.

I don't have a specific reference for this, but I did some extensive testing on this a couple years ago, and this was what we found.
