Effects of broadcasts

So I always hear about how VLANs create more broadcast domains and essentially limit the amount of broadcast traffic on a given network.

My question is when do you actually see this being an issue and have it impact performance? Would 240 hosts on a /24 really show performance issues due to broadcasts?

I'm a field engineer currently and don't have as much hardcore networking experience as I'd like to so please forgive my ignorance if its quite often.
