They should be able to handle twice as many on a server now.

If the traditional metric of computing power doubling every 18 months is
used, then they should be able to handle 4 times as many players after 3
years. They should actually be merging some of the realms (although I don't
know what would be done about name conflicts).

Merging would be pretty much not possible as it would create too much
confusion. But on a second thought, they are able to merge people in
BGs.

They should definitely not add new servers but rather expand the
current ones.
