If 100 Devices in a LAN Is Good, 1000 Devices Must Be Better

In some cases, bigger is better, but in other cases, it is not. As a LAN grows, it might become too big. The problem? Well, each PC must spend CPU cycles processing received broadcasts. As the broadcast domain increases in size, every device has more broadcasts to process. As a result, it makes sense not to put too many devices in a single VLAN.
