[hobbit] Please comment my test Hobbit server info

[Rich Smrcina]

Some simple math shows that you could probably go to about 4000 hosts 
comfortably (with a 5 minutes test cycle time).  Of course, there may be 
other factors to consider when you go that high, so YMMV.

I would also consider the fact that as hobbitping improves those ping 
times will come down.
