That is a theoretical numbers game. Scaling up to multiple hundred computers under the same physical domain is not only a bandwith (speed) problem, but also a traffic problem (e.g. finding an unused slot). That is where you physically seperate the network into small sections and connect them through a fast switched backbone. Also becomes a security issue - you wouldn't want ALL company traffic exposed to everybody in the network.
