Shard. Actually, it's probably well more than that by now, since they've
added machines to support additional landmass. It's actually a limit per
process, and processes are dependent on machines in the cluster. So that was
2500 back when it was just the original 4km x 4km map... You could have
thrown more machines at the cluster and supported more but there wasn't
enough content mapwise to have that make sense...

No point, I don't work there anymore. :) I am sure that EA is well-informed
on the potential market size in Italy...
