well, right now there is no limitation because you cannot get as much dimms as you want in the mashine. so the limitation is based on the biggest maschine from sun, that would be right now a SunFire 25K and there you can use 144 Cores with 576GByte RAM.
(i know some testing engineers from sun, and they told me that they tested solaris with 256 SystemBoards (that would be 1024 CPU) and it worked fine)
