Team Thanked: 52 times	Hi dan2alen, Cotonti is a relatively lightweight PHP framework, which means it can handle quite a lot of traffic without much overhead. Speed is one of Cotonti's strong points when compared to solutions like Joomla, Wordpress or Drupal. I suggest deploying Cotonti Siena 0.9.7, since it supports various caching methods including Memcache and APC, which will drastically improve performance. One site running Cotonti which I know has a lot of traffic is FMScout.com. While I can't give you any statistics, the site usually has hundreds of visitors at any given time. The actual loading time of your pages mostly depends on the front-end of your site, which you can customize completely. If you need more information on improving your website performance I strongly encourage you to read the Best practices for speeding up your website. Many of these best practices are already implemented in Cotonti. For example, Cotonti provides you with a way to improve page load time by combining several javascript or css files into a single minified file, thus reducing the number of HTTP requests. However it is up to you to use this or not, and to develop the front-end template in a way which is suitable for the connection speed of your target audience. I hope this is the information you were looking for. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.
