The new spec servers coming on line should increase Sim loading to about 100 concurrently with acceptable user experience. So then a group of 10,000 could possibly share a single Sim.
Of course there is still a lot to do to optimize a Sim to eliminate lag as well as initial arrival.

I would be impressed if SL infrastructure can handle this kind of growth. We seem to have problems each time concurrent users nears 25k. Future plans to allow residents to host their own sims on their own data centres have been hinted at. Supporting this many users will require a major infrastructure upgrade.
As for economy I would expect a large increase in USD payments for SL services. This will be very difficult to monitor. Currently if you rent land for Anshe Cheung you pay her by paypal in USD, this kind revenue is not included in linden stats.
If growth outstrips capacity don’t be surprised if free accounts come to and end.
