I think a lot of that depends on the load generated by each server, the
number of clients accessing them, etc.

We split our servers into 4 subnets - basically core infrastructure (dc's,
file and print, etc), internal enterprise applications (like our ERP, CRM
etc), externally interfaced systems (those which connect to partners, other
business units, etc), and development. The externally interfaced systems are
double firewalled - they sit on a segment that's got firewalls towards both
the partners/external side as well as one between them and the rest of our
network.

But those decisions are made based on our environment. We used to run a
completely flat network here, when we had more total users. Performance was
fine then, but I'm happier with the current layout.
