I was an end user of a Juniper SSLVPN appliance, and so were 1000's of my colleagues. I would definitely recommend doing their own verification of how many sessions these appliances require. I know my organization had to add a lot more appliances to get performance up to what they consider an acceptable speed. What they consider acceptable speed is not wire speed for many US broadband users.
I don't know what the exact numbers are, but I suspect they can handle closer to 100's of sessions than 1000's of sessions.
Sorry for going off-topic.
