Xbase to Client-Server

Can anyone tell if there are any objective metrics for when to move from Xbase File-Server Architecture (such as FoxPro) to a Client-Server RDBMS Architecture (such as Sybase-Powerbuilder)?

For instance, is there a threshold in number of records, megabytes of data or number of simultaneous users at which FoxPro should be ruled out as a development tool.

If anyone has any objective metrics, benchmarks, or statistics supporting such a threshold, please email them to me at:
