I have had multiple installations of Fox in environments well in excess of this, without problem. It is important to note however, that many times 'network' issues will begin to arise, and Fox gets blamed. By this I mean, a poorly segmented or load balanced network, where bandwidth is the issue. You simply cannot have a hundred people on a single Ethernet segment and expect good performance from *any* piece of software. So it helps to have an idea what the network looks like before getting strangled by the problem.
