Does anybody know what does this sentence mean?

Few days ago i have done test (i have thread about it somewhere). In this test my ship was killing them for like 8-9 hours in a row and it looked like NPC will never stop respawning.

If it's the FW faction navy spawns in enemy highsec you're talking about, it's referring more to the number of them that can exist at once, rather than their ability to respawn.

If you keep killing them, they'll keep coming back, but if you get like a dozen alts in space to lure them off, you can roll around hostile highsec without worrying.

we have unlimited CONCORD and it doesn't kill server

Yes, it can. You can get banned for doing it though.

There was that video where someone loaded an orca with shuttles, disgorged them all at once and smartbombed them. The resulting concord cloud put an absurd load on the server.
