About 200 per instance is still the rule. -----Original Message----- The usual answer is: "it depends.." To draw more of the picture, modern 2014-like hardware, can cope with more demanding situations than systems from four years ago, allowing more users per vpn-porocess On the other hand, if you rely heavily on PKI, using long keys/digest, heavier cyphers, regular rekeying and tokes/cards that need their time, you will probably encounter the "single thread"-characteristics of openvpn. In such cases I would drastically reduce that number of users/process and increase the number of parallel-processes. Mind you: It would still work, but one user will be blocking another once in a while.
