At what point does postgres stop scaling?

I think it is hard to come up with blanket responses to generic
questions such as "What happens when the computational load no longer
fits on one machine?"
Of course, I guess I'm looking out for the pain points that people
commonly hit with chunky postgres installs...
I work in healthcare and patient centric records let me consider
multiple servers for lots and lots of patients. The engineering team
from instagram has been sharing their experience with postgres, which is
possible due to their domain model.
I'll have a google, but do you have the Instagram links you're thinking of?
cheers,
Chris
