How many records it can hold before becoming too slow for practical use
depends entirely of the hardware that makes up the server.
Current versions of MySQL has a finite limit of 2^64 records per table, but
how many billion records you can shove into it before you start seeing
performance issues depends on the RAM size, the RAM/CPU roundtrip speed,
and the pure processing power of the CPUs, as well as the overall load of
the server. Obviously dedicated DB servers/clusters will be able to handle
alot higher record counts than mixed-purpose servers.
