If you store everything in the database the only bottleneck is the database. The web2py DAL does not add a significative overhead. You can have as many servers you need under a load balancer. Those web server can work independently (other than for the database) thus providing scalability.
You cannot separate the issue of scalability from the issue of speed. - web2py is much faster than rails. If you try them both you will feel the difference. - web2py supports connection pools - You can improve web2py speed by storing uploaded files in a upload folder (the default) and make it a shared folder. This will reduce database load but does not necessarily reduce network load. - You can improve speed by not using sessions. - You can improve speed by caching page in ram or memcache. I am sure other uses will have experiences to share. Massimo On Apr 22, 11:43 am, Pynthon <forumx...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello > > Ruby on Rails is sometimes hard to scale I heard.
