Hi Bill,

Please go ahead and use what you can. Three million users, you'd be looking in the region of 200M ratings. At this point I'd be looking to scale with Hadoop to split the work out.

There's a nice walkthrough here (not by me): http://chimpler.wordpress.com/2013/02/20/playing-with-the-mahout-recommendation-engine-on-a-hadoop-cluster/
