Were you thinking of serving them all off one domain address?? Because with
that many users your usernames are going to get pretty cryptic. I'ld highly
recommend spliting them up into subdomains. e.g. user@east.domain.com,
user@west.domain.com, etc. Doing it off one domain is possible with load
balancing or round-robin DNS. The limiting factor is going to be the
traffic from the various servers accessing the central database.
