I think Cobalt markets it as capable of hosting 200 virtual sites.  The actual
limit will depend on the total RAM, CPU and bandwidth usage of the virtual
sites, the usage patterns of those site and what sluggishness you're willing to
tolerate x% of the time.  I don't have any RaQ2s with more than 140 sites per
box, but more is definitely possible.  If you're doing name-based hosting I
doubt there is a real limit, but if you're doing IP-based hosting you may hit a
barrier around 254 b/c I don't think you can have more than 254 (or 255) network
interfaces without hacking the kernel.
