Hi,


This is true for vanilla opensim, but not if you allow custom tweaking. 
At the end of last year we've managed with the folks from 3Di to have 
successfully 68 clients on quad-core Intel box with 2GB of RAM. So: it 
has been done. ;o) The server did not crashed, although there is more 
work needed to get such a load to be fully usable. 68 is not a limit - 
the server would work with more but the responsivity of the system goes 
close to zero. Check a video with 61 clients on:
