It's like a memory matrix. In older models (2500's or so), there used to be
a hardware enforced limit of 300, as far as I know. In newer models, it is
solely based on the processor capabilities and the amount of memory
available. Obviously, the spiffier models with lots of memory will be able
to support more virtual interfaces than older models will.

IDB interfaces include any physical or virtual interfaces... So tunnels,
dialers, virtual-profiles, sub-interfaces, etc., etc., etc...

You can use "show idb" to give you an idea of what's up with your current
system. That's a hidden command still as far as I know.

Does anyone have a good description, explaination, or verbose documentation
on interface descriptor blocks? I know WHAT they are but I have never been
able to find a really good document on them, where they live, what makes
them the limiting factor in sub-interfaces, etc.
