I have all my nodes connected to the same 1000 mbps port Cisco switch.

Each node has 10 guests each (both LXC and KVM)

Corosync have a hardcoded limit of 32 nodes max per cluster.

What will be a practical limit in my case?

10 nodes will work fine for a cluster?

Any suggestions?
 
This really depends on the network load, but yes - corosync works with up to 32 nodes if the network is fast enough.
10 nodes is a quite common size and should work without problems.
