| 10–25 Agents | NORMAL for most campaigns | Start conservative, monitor for 48 hours before adjusting |

| 25–100 Agents | NORMAL for most campaigns | Scale gradually — larger operations amplify effects of misconfiguration |

| 100–500 Agents | NORMAL for most campaigns | Consult ViciStack optimization team for enterprise-scale tuning |
