We have moved to a masterless puppet install after running a server/ client method for over a year (maybe two). We have about 500 machines but started having trouble with alot less (~100) The puppet master would consume 8 GB and then crash due to running out of RAM. The puppet server was too unstable. We went through the upgrade process for several versions, each time hoping the memory leaks would be solved. But they were not. One thing we have is mulitple NFS mounts common to all machines. So moving to serverless was quite painless and has so far been a HUGE improvement.
