we (who i contract for) have got a number of high traffic sites running off cake 1.2.* but they have had a fair amount of magic woven using mcache and custom flat caching components (which we've written). providing you sort object/ view caching then cake will take any traffic. We've had sites running 30,000 server impressions a day out of the box, no object or flat caching, up to 8 million and more for fully cached and flatfiled (www.cyclingnews.com towards the end of last years tour de france). IMHO benchmarking provides very little relation to real world performance as this gets into how good your hardware/ network/ how much memory etc). if you are at cakefest, you can hear andy gale describing what he did to improve this little documented aspect of cakephp. -- Mike Karthauser Managing Director - Brightstorm Ltd Email: [email protected] Web: http://www.brightstorm.co.uk Tel: 07939 252144 (mobile) Fax: 0870 1320560 Address: 1 Brewery Court, North Street, Bristol, BS3 1JS Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://cakeqs.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
