GetSimple Support Forum

Hello!

I really like GetSimple CMS and have a question, what about server resource usage for high traffic sites?

Do you have some information? A site with ... 1k uniques a day will use a lot of server resources reading the XML database?

Thanks in advance.

Regards, Marcos.

I actually never logged CPU usage. But I can imagine a server getting many simultaneous hits might have a peek when rendering the page menus. It’s mostly about the number of file calls, if you can keep those down the server shouldn’t have a lot of problems.

get-simple.info gets a ton of hits a day and I never see any problems....

I haven't monitored it, but take a look at ecommerce software, (X-Cart) can handle that amount with no problems. I used X-Cart as an example because I personally believe it has the WORST coding ever. To load the homepage, it requires about 40 files +60 calls to the database. Yikes.

But to avoid this problem just use the right ecommerce source.
