Microsoft Dynamics CRM 3.0 Enterprise Performance and Scalability Now Available
I have made several postings in the past linking to scalability documents but the feedback was that these are always focused on small to medium sized companies. So today I can proudly say that Microsoft Dynamics CRM is designed to meet the needs of global enterprises. In order to support the growing number of enterprise customers deploying Microsoft Dynamics CRM in large scale environments, Microsoft is conducting extensive performance and scalability benchmark testing.
This white paper represents the first benchmark in a series and demonstrates 6,000 users running on single instance of Microsoft Dynamics CRM 3.0. The system delivered sub-second response executing a heavy workload against a large, complex database. Testing on Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 is currently underway, and results are expected to be publicly available at product launch. The Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 platform includes significant enhancements for performance and scalability, with a corresponding increase in scalability expected.
Will update with link when published on PartnerSource and the Partner Portal.

We're a hosted Microsoft Dynamics CRM service provider trying to plan our prices for hosted CRM 4.0. Is there any guidance about what type of server infrastructures can support some example numbers of users and instances. For example, we server a lot of users in the 5-25 and 26-75 user segments. How many of these would you expect to run on a two server config (1x CRM Server, 1 x SQL Server)?
