There is no limit ;-)

How are the following parameters set?
  CACHE_SIZE (7.4) or DATA_CACHE (7.3)
  MAX_CPU
  MAX_USERTASKS
  MAX_LOCKS

Are other CPU intensive or memory intensive applications on the server?
How many CPUs are used by your application?
How many users are connected?
Do you run large insert/update/delete jobs in one single transaction?

If just the SAP DB and your application share the server mentioned, I'd start with
CACHE_SIZE/DATA_CACHE = 512000 (4GB)
MAX_CPU = 6
