Exactly.

Even if the theoritical limit is an important factor, i.e an unbreakable
limit without redesign, the practical limit is also of importance, and
often much less impressive than the theoritical one. Knowing what
people have been able to create and *use* *everyday* *without* *pain*,
is very interesting.

 I've heard about 30To somewhere on this list... Is there more than
that ? What about maximum number of nodes ? Has somebody "played" with
64 nodes ? 128 nodes ? Even more... ?

If anybody had any bigger figure and wanted to share, please do.
