Ken Koontz askes how many transputers with no external memory can you get
in a system. We have put 96 (12 by 8) T800s on a 'double extended triple
eurocard'. That is a board roughly 40 cm square. We hace then put up to
6 of these boards  in an enclosure the size of an IBM PC AT box complete
with power supply, graphics capture and display systems and cooled the system
with only a couple of fans. Given reasonable design parameters there is no
reason why you should not just keep increasing the size (other than cost!).
