That shouldn't be a problem. The largest CFengine installation I've run only 
had 50 hosts,
and that had negligible impact on the server. The only time you could see 
anything
happening on the server was when the binaries got updated and all clients 
started to
download new binaries.

failure in
your setup and it is better to have several servers. That could be distribution 
servers
which on their turn copy the policy from a master server, or a bunch of master 
servers
who all get their configuration from shared storage.
