We're running up to 17 physical terminals in our software development
shop, all running MultiView(a product which allows up to 6 apps on a
dumb terminal).  Our programers tend to be heavy users in about 3-4
screen with several compiles going at once.

The system keeps up pretty good.  We still only have a 25 mhz model also!
