Nah, not with maintenance reduction. My 1000-ship fleet was using less than half my maintenance, and I wasn't really trying to increase my resource production, even though I had... about 9-9 systems. So the practical limit is probably more like hmmm... well, I'd say at least 100,000 _good_ ships, not to mention escorts etc., and of course, not including the infinite potential of mothballed ships.
