Therte's no hard number answer to this, and you're going to need to do some serious testing to establish the best performance for your particular situation. If I recall, the number of worker processes that can be spun up starts to die off at about 500,
but it really depends on RAM, processor capabilities and how the app is designed. If you're seriously looking at high performance and availability, you're going to be looking at a web farm or clustering, certainly load balancing.
