Obviously I don't know what the nature of your proposed site is, but  
on average I would not expect a very high proportion of users to be  
online simultaneously (ie, within the lifetime of a session item). We  
have sites with 10,000-plus users, and we encourage them to log in  
using reminder emails. We send all the emails in one burst, and even  
then our A4D-based system is comfortably within its capabilities. You  
could stagger reminders.

We tend to see the most sessions open when Google or someone is  
harvesting!

As far as I know the number of session items is not too significant,  
but you need to be sure that the amount of RAM they add up to is  
within your hardware's specification.

Bear in mind I'm not a great expert!
