In production, I will periodically run a tcpdump for a period of time and then analyse in Wireshark, look for SIP retries. Retries can be an indication that your platform is potentially overloaded.
That's an open-ended question, it usually depends on your hardware and your configuration.
Here are some real-world examples.
The only way to find the capacity of FreeSWITCH in your environment is through real-world usage, you should monitor your servers and in particular keep an eye on the load average. You want the load average to stay below the number of physical hardware CPU threads.
