Hi, with very limited technical knowledge I've been trying to compare ezPublish to other CMSs on my short list, including WebGUI and Plone. Besides my next question, any comments on or comparisons with WebGUI would be helpful. (For the time being, I've eliminated Plone as an option.)

Is there good data available on the sites running ezPublish that have very high traffic? With enough servers can ezPublish handle 3 million visitors per month, or 30 million, or 300 million, or 1 billion? I'm ignorant of how sites like yahoo which use php handle so much traffic.

For instance, I was able to find the following estimate (by a developer) on WebGUI's upper bounds, which may or may not be accurate:

WebGUI is suitable For:

Corporate web sites of 7-1000 pages.
Sites that need user registration.
Community sites of up to 20,000 registered users (more needs a dedicated server).
Sophosticated personal sites and blogs that want to create and maintain online communities.
Sites that need to measure user opinions and feedback.
Sites that need multiple content contributers with different levels of authority on the site changes.
Corporate product catalogs of up to 500 products.
Sites that need constant updating of content.
Intranets with content accessible to only the users you set.
Sites that need to mix areas not accessible to visitors and areas that are accessible to users.
Sites that need to allow users to download content and files.
Sites that sell content access and content subscriptions.

WebGUI is not suitable for:

Sites that need to publish more than 1000 pages.
Sites that get more than 750,000 page impressions or 7,500,000 server hits.
Community sites with more than 50,000 users.
If you need an integrated shopping cart with your online catalog.
Sites with complex custom database requirements.

yes , this is always my concerning, because i will do a site with 4 section, about 100 folders,10000 links and more than 1000 flash games.
so i want to find some suitable CMS, but ez is the one of them which can provide easy customization. so i take it as my CMS now though i do not know whether it can perform excilently.

i think the most inconvenience is the info collection. because i find ez can goes soothly for content with cache system,but it does bad in registering,submit posts etc. such info-collecting processes.i am also met this phenomenon on ez.no when i submit topic.

soon i will provide blog, forum,and album etc. ,and will have thousands users,i wish ez guys spent some precious time on improving performence of info-collection.

thanks!
