I am not sure I understand the question. I can tell you how I proceed: 1) make a prototype that does what I want. 2) deploy and see what happens 3) when I start having lots of hits try to reduce the number of queries using cache/memcache 4) eventually move some date or all data to a non-relational database
Try plan for 4 by not using joins and not calling select directly in controllers/views but call functions that do the queries so, eventually, you only need to rewrite those functions. Even if the new dal will probably work with some non-relational databases you will still need to rewrite the queries because the database structure needs to be a little different for each of the. Honestly I do not know much about grok. I have seen some code example and in terms of rapidity of development web2py is probably better, but it boils down to which one you find more friendly. In terms of scalability I do not think there is any difference. The bottle neck is never going to be the framework for you, but the database. Each of them can be but behind a haproxy and replicated. If your app did not need the database (absurd) both frameworks would exhibit perfect scalability.
