I am considering using SQL CE for multithreaded server where there is at approx. 80 clients often (secs) working with data in DB. I know MySQL (EDIT: unoffical servers) has no problems (World of Warcraft speaks for itself), but what about that? Thanks!

For a server, I would recommend SQL Server Express Edition - I have used it on a server with higher loads than you mention with no problem. Is there a reason you are using SQL CE? To my knowledge, SQL CE is recommended primarily for embedded apps and on handheld devices where you cannot use a full server-edition product.

OK, also many threads asking at the same time is no problem? I am afraid whether it would not cause lags. – Tomas Dec 22 '09 at 18:23
Not with a database. They're designed to handle things like that - that's probably their primary advantage over using a flat file. – Ed Leighton-Dick Dec 22 '09 at 22:51
