Aladdin Mouhaimeed	Friday 27 January 2006 3:29:49 am Few months ago, I was complaining that eZ Publish goes to slow, and then I was told that if I want it to run fast, then I need to run it on a dedicated server. Now I think, this means that I need to use a dedicated server to have the same speed I can have using normal cheap hosting but with other scripts than eZ like mambo. I'm I thinking right? Please somebody tell me I'm wrong. I spent months learning eZ, but until now, I find it far away from my control. And because of that I was on my way to loose my job. If anybody have time, and think can help, I will appreciate it if he/she join me on msn or yahoo, [email protected], [email protected]
Sebastian Picklum	Friday 27 January 2006 2:03:03 pm Hi Aladdin! Mambo is "community, gallery and tons of extensions" that is designed to run small to medium websites on "cheap" webspace. eZ Publish on the other hand is "enterprise stuff" that is designed to run large sites on one or more servers. But don't be afraid, there are fairly affordable solutions to run eZ Publish sites - as long as you don't serve thousands of requests per hour. My current hoster charges me US$ 5 per Month for 12 gigs of webspace and 500 gigs of traffic - I even got a ready-to-run setup preinstalled on my account. Debug prints for the demo-plain site with all features enabled total processing times between 0.2-0,7 secs (cached) and 4-10 secs (all caches empty), which is fast enough for small sites. Dedicated servers aren't that expensive to run (at least in Germany). For example you can get a real root-server for 15¤-29¤/month (single CPU machines). On these machines you'll have definetively more speed than on any shared webspace. Regards, Sebastian [email protected]

To answer your question: If you want to quickly build a site with standard features and many limitations regarding customizing the design you can head for Mambo. But you should take eZ Publish if you want to have a site exactly the way you want. It requires a little more work, but eZ Publish has much more possibilities than other cm-systems.
