That would likely be limited by your NAT/load-balancing system. It has to
maintain the state of all the connections. It could also be constrained by the
web servers, but they will only see one tenth of the connections each, so
they'll probably be ok.

Subject: RE: [long] Re: NAT and firewalls
What is the maximum number of connections possible to one specific port ?
If I have 10 Web servers behind one NAT address, with requests load balanced
among the 10 machines, is there a limit to the number of connections
possible to those ten machines, versus having the connections to the 10
machines directly ?
