Hi,
C-libre http://www.c-libre.net/control/main faced the same issue some years ago.
Their clients (agro-alimentary mid sized entreprises) needed such requirements
for sales also.
They told me they rewrote this part and also refactored the promotions and
price rules to speed them.
But unfortunalety it's based on Neogia. So, at least for now (the Neogia team works on so called OFBiz add-ons), no synergies are
possible.

Hi Scott,
No its not the customers who are ordering. These are purchase orders of the
500 facilities (or stores). I think its mostly the sheer number of
inserts/updates that is required to complete the process. I did a similar
application that inserts/updates to the same entities directly to the
database to complete a purchase order and the results, as compared to how
ofbiz does, it wasn't significantly faster. Right now Im finding ways to
divide the work and/or remove this load from the main ofbiz server to give
way for other processes that will be maintained by ofbiz.
What I wanted to try is to implement ofbiz as a tool to manage inventories
and sales of multiple stores; about 500 stores selling about 18,000 products
doing at least 1 sales transaction (average of 4 line items) per minute.
Stores make purchase orders everyday for about 800 products each day. You
mentioned that ofbiz wasnt intended for this kind of use? What would you say
could be managable by ofbiz OOTB (or with minor changes)?

Hi Ian
My guess is that because most people don't order 1000 different products in
a single purchase order the code has never been optimized to deal with that
scenario. The framework itself can certainly handle it so it's really just
a matter of finding the bottlenecks and improving the offending code. If
you can locate the portions of code that are slowing things down it will be
easier to offer suggestions on how to improve it.
