[»] Good Potential - Scalability
by Hone Watson - Jan 28th 2006 03:15:00

This seems to be a pretty cool. Runs DailyKos so must be pretty scalable.

Wordpress can be quite slow once you get over 10,000 visitors a day (2.0 does takes even more queries than ever before to produce a page)

So this is worth a look if you've got a big project happening.

I had a temporary DSL outage. There will be a real dev site again very soon, as well. Sorry about that.
