How many threads can JMeter handle?

Folks,

Has anyone used JMeter to generate loads of on the order of 100 thread
groups via one JMeter instance?  (I am using the 02-10-07 build.)

I have a tomcat 4.0.4 application that seems to behaving oddly under heavy
loads. Sending back various java errors like:
	java.io Connection Closed
	end of server file
and
	The JMeter View Results Tree sometimes marks a result as bad, but I
can find nothing wrong with the text of the result.  The Response Assertion
is looking for the word "Total" which should be at the end of the output
stream.

Do you mean 100 thread groups or 100 threads?  If thread groups, how many threads in 
each?  100 threads isn't that many.  I've run 500 on my Windows 2000, 600mhz athlon, 
512MB RAM successfully. Not that I would trust the timing data overly much in those 
conditions.
