Keep in mind that there are many ways to run puppet.
We manage ~100 nodes with just a single puppet master running within a gentoo
VM w/ only single cpu core and 2GB ram. Catalog compile times average under
0.6 seconds. This is also w/ web brick. The puppet master VM also serves as
a master

We have puppet managing 800 nodes from a single dedicated CentOS server with
16GB ram and 8 cores, which is our standard infrastructure box. We use
apache, passenger and ruby 1.8.7. Altogether about 10GB is used for puppet.
All 800 nodes check in every 30 minutes. Load levels via uptime are
typical
