It's the archive for Foswiki discuss after March 2009. I have a thread near the top. The gist is that if we are lucky we could run into a problem scaling out. As A.C. said there are webs and subwebs, as near as I can tell these correspond to directories. The performance of a web/directory degrades noticeably by about 100000 entries by which time searches take 5-10 seconds each. Furthermore, these companies wind up having to use Google search engines on their sites. This limit is an area that is attracting a lot of effort however. One way around this limit is to have subwebs. This gives your wiki a hierarchical structure. So for an encyclopedia you would perhaps have mutually exclusive horror and superhero webs. Now do we put Buffy the Vampire Slayer entries in horror or superhero? For an encyclopedia type site, hierarchy is Bad. _______________________________________________ http://mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l_mccmedia.com
