IMO, as long as the models are spicy, the only problem would be processing and lag issues from so many dang ships on screen at a time.
Assuming its a normal day at a space station, there would be as many as 100~ civilian ships coming and going, excluding patrols and military ships.
=edit=
The most ships I ever put up on screen iirc, is about 18 capital ships, and roughly 12 wings of 4 fighters, excluding Alpha and Beta. So its a grand total of ... 73 ... ? ... ships. I don't recall much lag issues, although there was minor when I was watching the capital ships duke it out.
