Further than 24 for spawning. Within 36 doesn't despawn. The despawning rate outside of 36-72 is dependent on what the mob is doing -- ie there is some definition for idle activity and the mob has a finite chance of despawning if it is idle.
This design is based upon a concept of one i saw on Youtube that is 1/4 of the size but works very well -- the guy's original plan was to build something this large, but he stopped at 1/4. My thought is that since this is communal it should be full sized. There are also advantages here in terms of resource efficiency compared to the other guy's trap.
If you hang out at my current trap, you can see how effective this type of design can be, and my current trap is only a little more than 1/2 the size of this one and not nearly as ideal in terms of stream design.
