C0n: page load times are totally dependent on what you have running on your website. They can depend on how many categories that you have defined for your forum just as much as they depend on how much memory you have allocated. The differences between two configured implementations of Kunena can differ because of processor speed, PHP version, SQL version or any number of things.

However, as a general statement, given two identical forums running on the same webserver (one using K 1.6.2 and the other using K 1.5.13) the K 1.6 version will outperform the K 1.5 version. Perhaps you can arrange a comparison test site to show the empirical results of these tests.

Depending on the features and integrations you enable, you can see 20-30 queries per page down from what was 200-300 in some cases. For example Joomla itself uses about 20 queries for a single page view (also depending on plugins and modules and menus you have enabled.

In addition Kunena has started to combine images into CSS sprites and we have implemented CSS and JS minification as part of our template to speed up page load times. Compared to Kunena 1.5 the page load times seen by Google have decreased by 60-70% now that we are running 1.6 here on kunena.com.

For Kunena 2.0 (planing has already started) we are targeting the next big round of performance improvements with a dramatically revised data model, that allows us to scale to 10-100x larger sites - on a single server.

Today we can easily support 10's of millions of page views per month per single dedicated server.

Development of Kunena 2.0 will start soon after the release of the current 1.6 going stable. We are targeting a 3 month dev cycle for it.

Long story short: Kunena 1.6 is your way to start, with performances features that many other forum solutions have not even implemented.

If you have particular test cases in mind, we will be happy to include you early on in the large scale performance testing for next releases.

Kunena is absolutely committed to enterprise scale and reliability. We are working on several enterprise integrations/installations of Kunena at the moment that all require enterprise grade software features.

Hope this helps!
