I'm happily scanning hundreds of IPs using a 2GHz 256MByte Arch Linux Virtual Private Server. Depends on your requirements.
Do you need to run a lot of scans in parallel, or can a scan run lazily all night? Do you want to brute force / enumerate logins, or do you "just" run discovery scans. Etc etc...
