I run exclusively in GUI mode and run two thread groups with 250 threads each. They share data and thread groups and run perpetually. I am running on an older 2ghz dual quad core server. I can run four instances of this scenario with a total of 2000 threads. One thread group is in a tight loop waiting for events and one thread group is sending different requests based on a random chance. Each instance of the four instances handles a couple hundred thousand transactions to a million a day. I run instances for a few days to a week.
I use the Simple Data Writer, View Results Tree (for errors only), Results Summary and Aggregate report in GUI mode. I should try non-gui mode one day but I like looking at aggregate report data. This will use about 90% of CPU and about 4GB memory. JMeter 2.9 uses a lot more CPU but less memory than 2.6.
