[pfSense-discussion] captive portal user base

[Nick Buraglio]

Of those of you that have been using the captive portal, how large  
and diverse are your user bases?  I'm going to test this under  
simulated load and on a limited test base but I'm curious if given  
some higher end hardware if the portal can handle a few hundred heavy  
users daily.  I see no reason that it wouldn't but figured I'd ask.   
Also, is it capable of syncing the active portal users to a backup  
machine?
What are people's experiences?
Thanks for any insight,
