Question Can Kunena & Joomla handle 1mio posts and 100.000 users?

Hi

First of all, sorry for the catching topic ..

Intro:

I am new to Joomla and therefore of course Kunena. I am not new to opensource and webapplications.

I am webmaster for a medium sized nordic portal/forum.
We are on the lookout for alternatives to our old locked-in applications, and I accidently stumbled upon Kunena (by a friend).


Info:

We have a lot of existing data:
- ~1 mio threads & postings in our forum archives
- ~800.000 user profiles in total

The activity is however much less:
- ~1.000 new postings a day
- ~50.000 users loggin in (main part logs in due to a webservice which is outsourced)

The monthly statistics shows:
- ~20mio page views
- ~1mio unique users
- Unknown number of searches (fulltext searches in entire forum)

I am aware that the searches is important, but we dont have any statistics on that as it is today.
I am also aware that loadbalancers take a lot of the load (duh ) and we have a professionel hosting partner in hand already.


Question:

Will Kunena (and Joomla) be able to handle this?

Are there experienced people (within this forum?) who can help with tips and tricks for large sites?

/ Best regards

you ll need to wait till Kunena 2.0 but you can try now and inform us

@fxstein - Thanks. As I wrote, Ill give a private email this weekend.

@deminbo
I've read a bit about 1.6 and 2.0.
And yes, I might wait for at least 2.0 to come out as you recommend. I wouldnt begin such a project without being somewhat sure it can succeed
There is not much info on this topic though (yet), but it looks promising.

@LittleJohn
see 1.6 changelog
joomlacode.org/gf/project/kunena/scmsvn/...ELOG.php&view=markup

I have looked at it, and it looks GOOD!

Thanks for the info
