Concrete5 for membership site. Does it scale for 120-200 users?
Permalink
I recently made the switch from wordpress to concrete5 because the backend is SO usable and I love the C5 MVC architecture. I will be doing my first "official" c5 site that will only have 20 pages or so but it will have around 130 members (it should never grow too large -- this is for an academic group). My question is how well does concrete5 scale for this many users? The membership capability is fantastic so I'm just worried about how well it scales. Thanks.
well take a look at this site :) a couple thousand users
It never even occured to me that this site is using c5. Duh, now I feel stupid.
Good to know that it can handle so many users! I'm just trying to make sure it can handle everything I need for this site and so far, so good! Thanks.

No problem ! :) Yeah, we have 12.5k users and more are being added every day. You may start to overpower your host, if you're not on a very powerful server (or you're on a shared box) if your users are active and post frequently, but for that amount of people I doubt you'll notice any slowdown.
