Yes, currently, most W2000 installations max out at about 300 users.
We may be at a point of transition. The old ceiling of around 300 users on
W2000 may increase to a higher threshold with W2003.
Initial tests (although limited) on W2003 point to some of the inherent
bottlenecks may be removed that were in W2000.
We have not performed any formal benchmarks (nor do we have any scheduled
soon) to attempt to scale a W2003 system to maximum user load with an
application.
(Humor here...) Given the huge sucking sound that comes from the black hole
in the "UniVerse" called Microsoft, I believe there will be someone out
there that will upgrade from W2000 to W2003. They may observe more
scalability of their applications as we have in our limited testing. This
may be the first place where we observe the user counts going up on W2003
systems.
Has anyone performed an upgrade from W2000 to W2003 and gotten more users
on their system? (Quantify if possible.)
Curious,
Steve
