No difference between Auth tables and any other tables made up of the same types of fields/numbers of records, etc. Do you really expect millions of *concurrent* users -- that sounds like Facebook/Google scale? Anyway, I assume you're a good ways off from that scale, so probably not worth worrying about too much at this point.
