[JDEV] Scale of server

[Jason Reineri]

Jabber can handle 3000 concurrent users with no problem.  The only
problem you will have is that the select() function in Linux is hard
coded to a certain number of sockets.  In kernel 2.4 that limit is 1024.
You can either recompile the kernel to allow more, or you can use dpsm
or jpolld as your socket manager.  These socket managers use the poll()
function instead of select() and are not subject to the limit.  You will
however have to increase the number of file descriptors you can have
open per process.  This can be done in a startup script that calls
ulimit.

I'm planing an instalation of jabber server in a isp, we have aprox 3000
concurrent users (i dont know wich porcentage will use our messanger)

Is jabber prepared for this? 
Are all the transports able to work in this client base? 
Thanks for your help!
