My site is probably the largest site using web2py at this time. https://secure.youadworld.com/ ignore the security warning we are getting the new certificates up today.
This site has: Binary tree with over 50,000 nodes Ad viewer Custom shopping system MLM Bonus structures Customer support engine yellow pages type of site engine Customer rating/review/shopping engines for each business in the youad directory (yellow pages) Daily bonus calculations Monthly bonus calculations Completely customized admin section for advertisement resource management: ad.youadworld.com And a lot more. Handles over 5 - 10 million inserts into the db per day Has over 1 million ad views a day Has had over 500,000 product orders Is being hit with over 5000 concurrent users per second at times Seeing well over 20 million page views a day. The biggest issue I am facing is scaling to handle 20,000 + concurrent users per second. When we have 3,000 even with 3 front end servers and 3 database servers things slow down allot.
