I remember the day when we put a limit of 128 subs per AP...

Yah. Depends on where the data hogs are.

For planning purposes, I assume we'll get 2/3's of advertised
throughput from the AP and then plan on 8:1.
In real life you have to abandon the over subscription rate after the
planning phase and monitor what's actually happening on the AP's.
Averaging hundreds of users together you'll get actual usage that
seems in line with an 8:1 or 6:1 ratio. On an individual AP you tend
to not have enough capacity for more than 30-50 people, so you can
easily get a few statistical outliers in the mix that make actual
consumption not line up with the planned over subscription rate.
It goes both ways too....I've seen sites with actual over subscription
of 20:1 and everything's working ok, and other actual sites fall apart
when oversub was only 4:1.

At what level do you over subscribe your APs? 4:1? 8:1? 15:1? Or
something else?
Thanks
