[Building Sakai] Need an example school

[Zach A. Thomas]

The number of concurrent users you can manage per-node will depend on your hardware, but a reasonable off-the-shelf server will handle in the high hundreds.

If you'll have thousands of concurrent users, then you'll need a substantial cluster. The larger institutions running Sakai exceed 10,000 concurrent.

There is a wealth of real-world production deployment information in JIRA, using this query:
