I generate my configuration files programmatically once a day based on queries to an asset management database to organize servers a specific way. There was discussion of a design option that would have a few of hundred entries in the modulepath day one and grow from there (creating new ones if needed when the configuration files are generated).. I don't want to start down a path that could limit me down the road and require starting over and since I could not find a limit in the puppet documentation so I thought I would ask.

Sounds like the suggestion I posed of a large modulepath is not a good one (nor is it scalable which was my first instinct). I am going with a design which does have a unique module path for each department (around 40) and one which is shared by all. This will allow me leverage existing nomenclature within puppet (for customization) that is in alignment with existing server administration and change processes.
