We're currently serving about 500GB of data with our intranet.
I only know it's Plone 2.1 with (I believe) ATManagedFile for filesystem 
support and a few other addons.
In a few weeks I have to move it to another server and get it up to Plone 3, so 
then I can see how plone.app.blob will perform.

Sasha recently wrote a blog post about large repositories of data being served 
up from Plone using plone.app.blob.

We're currently working on a project to build a digital asset management system 
using Plone, which will be serving terabytes of data.
