Not a specific example, but you might (or might not) find some
inspiration in Sun's web app guidelines:
<http://developers.sun.com/docs/web-app-guidelines/uispec4_0/>
The 'tree scalability' topic might be one that's of some interest:

Those guidelines (and the accompanying toolkit) were written primarily
for sysadmin-type applications, which often have to deal with the sort
of tasks and scalability you're talking about.
