As with most things, the answer is that it depends. I am runing World on a model 270 with 50CPW interactive, and it is more than adequate. But, I only have about 35 users on the system. I am not an AS/400 technical expert, but from what I can see it is really the batch processing (what you call Client Server) that puts the heavy load on the processor in World, and the 2000CPW batch is 2x what I am running. I can't tell you how many users your AS/400 would support on World, but I would guess easily 50 and probably more.

Oh, the version of the OS probably matters too. We are running 5.1

We have a 730-2067 and are co-existent, supporting about 40 concurrent users of World (payroll/property mgnt modules) and it's working fine. The kicker is when you pass the 11% mark of CPU using interactive. Most World functions would not cause anyone to surpass this, but SQL users will.
