Ori, We have connected to but not fully tested 60 devices on a single computer using libFTDI. One thing to note is that our computer did not like booting with so many devices attached even when they were buss powered. We are using a pair of relays to power up the devices after boot up is complete. Our system is Ubuntu 12.04 32-bit with a dual core Atom processor.
