Is 1000 pops at 2400 a decent number for peaceful growth?

I hit 2400 and realized I had actually only had two defensive wars at the beginning, this entire playthrough. I've conquered no pops, and done no raiding. I am running utopian abundant pleasure seekers and added budding eventually to all plant species, which somehow most of my pops are plants, not just my founder species. Running clone vats on every colony basically. Is 1000 a good number by 2400? If so, this civ will be very viable in multiplayer with my friends. I think I can push it a little further and will do a few things better next time. But I wanna know how much improvement I need so I can decide how many changes I have to make to this build. One change will be more wars, but those will be liberation wars so it won't change the pop numbers.

Default pop growth slider settings, please don't answer based on non-default settings that won't help me understand whether this is a good build or a bad build.
