web build on top of cherrypy with high traffic

[saptah]

Helo,
I'd like to know, if anybody on the list, have build a website using
cherrypy on top, and is getting some request per second.

I'd like to know what ORM i used, cherrypy version,etc...

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

My site does about 5 millions hits a day and 1 million
of these are through CherryPy 3.

CherryPy is not a significant factor in the
performance of the site - it's all down to the
database. I started off using SQLObject but then just
started using my own queries which was a lot faster
but slightly less convenient. I also use memcached for
almost everything which has made a huge difference.
