by the way, talking about current state of Quixote, douban.com is now getting 450,000 page views a day. 100% dynamically generated by qx. I
might be wrong but, it seems we are a busier site than every other
known ROR/django/TG installations in the world.

Awesome.  I guess I need to work on my Chinese so I can read the
site. :-)

I think that is more than awesome !

Is that really true? That douban gets more traffic than the much touted django news sites? If so, that should be said out a little more loudly i think....

How is the deployment like? What infrastructure do you use?


douban.com is currently running on a $1,500 home-made 1U server with an AMD athlon 64 dual core cpu, and SATA drives. It is hosted in Beijing. lighttpd, quixote, memcached, mysql are all running on one machine. We'll add another server later this month.

douban.net (the english version) is running on a similar machine, hosted in San Jose. But it's not getting much traffic.

by the way, alexa.com says that douban.com's average roundtrip response time for browsing is much shorter than 43things.com, one of the largest RoR deployment. granted, this might not mean much, since it contains the network latency.


And, as for learning some chinese... how do you say mmmmarketing in mmmmandarin ;-?

officially, it's "Ying Xiao", pronounced like "Ying Shiao".

mmmmario ;)
