&gt; &gt; Well, in my model there are no limit on the number of threads,
&gt; &gt; usually the number will consist of:
&gt; ...
&gt; &gt; - One thread per incoming connection
&gt; 
&gt; Get say a few hundred or thousand simultaneous players (or bot's), and
&gt; this alone will drag almost any current OS model to the floor, Linux
&gt; encluded.  FWLIW I use an asynchronous thread pool (again) to handle
&gt; network IO.

I admit that I've never worked with a load more than 20 simultaneous
connections, and therefore haven't run into that limitation, but I'm
just trying to keep the strict  separation between different abstraction
layers and if (when :-) I hit it, I'll just shift the accents.

Right now I'm working on a project which is supposed to have the number
of concurrent users close to that you mentioned, so in a couple of
months I'll be able to put down a detailed report on that subject :-)
