Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to How would one handle 12,000 db backed request per second?

Ben,

To clarify, it won't be 12,000 request per second **every second**.  But it will be 12,000 request per second several times throughout the day.  12,000 db backed request per second is a peak load number, not an average load number.  Heck, I guess this even goes beyond being "slashdoted"  :o)

Take care,

Louis
