It depends on a lot of stuff...
if you are using connection tracking in your IPTABLES it will reduce the 
number of open connections your machine can handle.

if you will use DEEP INSPECTION modules it will handle even less.

In most cases a nice and modern PC(not a server) can handle more then 
100k connections with any trouble.
but this is about IPTABLES...
if you have applications on your server it's another thing.

With a nice 8 cores 16gb Server you can max it with a proxy on it to 
about 30M connections with no trouble at all.

Regards,
Eliezer
