Hello,

IIS on Windows Server does not have any limit. The "limit" will most
likely be your hardware that cannot handle the load, and when this happens
is specific to your hardware, and your web application. So there is no
easy way to say when you need more than one server.

IIS on a workstation has a limit to 10 connections.
