This is not really a problem; again, the bottleneck was not Drupal. See Thorsten Bosbach's presentation about this at OOoCon 2010 http://www.ooocon.org/index.php/ooocon/2010/paper/view/209 (video might be online somewhere too; we had a nice long discussion worth watching). The figures Dave Fisher wanted (by the way, thanks for getting the OOo extensions site running again!) were given as around 120.000 page views per day on each site, see above link. And the sites functioned smoothly. After that, I know that Thorsten was porting both sites to Drupal 6 and cleaning the Drupal 5 tweaks; as far as I know, work was done for both sites, but only one production site (Templates) has been updated. Whoever submitted an extension/template will have seen that the backend was really customized to fit the use case, Thorsten did a nice job with this; it would be nice to get the code of the Drupal 6 port as part of the Oracle grant, it is really valuable.
