Hi everybody,
Yeah, Phillip's right. Sportsnet reached about 230,000 stories before
the recent redesign, and was still humming along smoothly.
(Interestingly, the FULL_SEARCH directive was turned on the whole time,
and it was always quick to search for stories.)
With the redesign, we only transferred Sportsnet's own content and
didn't migrate wire stories. So they're back down to about 130,000
again. There are about more than 30,000 media assets in the system too,
down from 160,000 in the pre-redesign system.
While we're dropping numbers, IFEX has something like 70,000 stories as
well. (Not much media in that one, though.)
So I'd say this without hesitating: Bricolage is excellent for large
sites. Better than any other CMS I've encountered.
Cheers,
Bret
