+ This depends on the test plan and the number of listeners, but users have 
reported successfully running 1000 threads in a single JMeter instance.
  
  See for example this e-mail thread:

  See also JMeter best practices:

+ Also, note that JMeter can place a much higher load on a system than a human 
user can, as it can make requests much faster. Suppose an average user waits 10 
seconds between clicking links. With a wait time of 1 second, JMeter could 
generate 10 times the load.
+ 
+ So a single JMeter thread can be the equivalent of 10 or more users, at least 
in terms of number of requests per second.
