Exactly. If those multiple robots must share the same IP(s) and are
identical in configuration, you can use "cloning" operation (**) as in
this example:
Robot R = { ... };
use(R ** 10);
"R ** 10" creates a list of ten Robots identical to R.
I have not tested multiple robots binded to the same IP though. If it
does not work, please let me know. For performance tests you should use
IP aliases.

Not in Polygraph. You are limited by the number of file descriptors, CPU
power, and RAM, of course. We casually ran with at least 1000 robots per
machine (see our Lab page for machine configurations).

You can always try to search Web site index for things like that
http://polygraph.ircache.net/idx.html
"Console Output" is referenced from that index.
