http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-jmeter/HowManyThreads - has a link to running jmeter lean and mean There is no definitive answer that anyone can give you for your machine , run your jmeter, monitor resources on your jmeter machine, if the CPU isn't pegged and memory is available then increase the threads. You really shouldnt have any background processes/tomcat running on the same machine as JMeter.
