I have a client with a large site (100+ pages and a lot of content). We're adding a repository module that will have 1000 - 1500 documents, up to 10 MB. 

We're concerned about the website's performance as user's start to download. We were wondering if it makes sense to add a child portal for the repository... would that help, or at least lessen, performance issues on the main website? 

Thanks.

since child and parent are part of the same DNN installation, there will be no performance effect in moving content between them both. You might consider to use more powerful hardware (new server, separate sql server onto its own hardware, using a web farm) and optimize performance settings in DNN host settings and IIS web site / app Pool configuration.

If you are going to be getting a lot of people downloading then you may want to consider offloading the downloads to a distributed network like Amazon S3.

This is almost purely about bandwidth. How many people need to be able to download how much at the same time and with what sort of speed... then, buy that throughput. An external option like John has suggested can be much better and cheaper if you are really going to have loads people at a time downloading stuff.

Thanks for the feedback.. I thought that would be the answer, but just wanted to confirm it.
