Anyone have any experience running BGP on Cisco 3550 platforms? Any
idea how many BGP routes it can handle?

last I tried (some 3 years ago) it died with about 7000 routes.

died = cpu 100%, packet loss, black holes eating traffic and the
      datacenter surrounding it...

Hum, I run a couple of them for IX stuff...

With a sdm prefer routing, you can handle :

sh sdm prefer
 The current template is the routing template.
 The selected template optimizes the resources in
 the switch to support this level of features for
 8 routed interfaces and 1K VLANs.

 number of unicast mac addresses:   5K
 number of igmp groups:             1K
 number of qos aces:                512
 number of security aces:           512
 number of unicast routes:          16K
 number of multicast routes:        1K

Anyway this is really low limits.... But can help sometime.

Another stuff, there is some limitation ... ie ip prefix-list that handled by configuration of the switch but not evaluated when bgp is running :/
