Deepak,
I believe yahoo and Facebook have largest clusters like over 4-5 thousand nodes 
of size.. 
If you add a new server to the cluster, you are simply adding to the cpu, 
memory, disk space of the cluster.. So, the capacity grows linearly as you add 
nodes except that network bandwidth is shared

I didn't understand your last question on scaling...
