Well, one way to test it would be to calculate how long a page takes to be generated. For instance, 10 threads which serve pages that are generated in 0.5 seconds can thus serve 20 pages per second.

However, on top on that, you have the fact that most users take a while to read each page. So, you need to calculate page loads per minute.

So our 10 threads above can serve 20 pages per second * 60 = 1200 pages per minute. If you have longer page generaton times, you need to adjust accordingly.

The most threads I have seen on any server is 35 threads. This application served some 20,000 to 35,000 users per week doing a multistep data entry/questionnaire application.
