 Hi all, 

I was looking for some feedback on donetnuke performance, for a dataintensive application how well would it scale to 600 concurrent users on a single IIS instance? Accessing a single SQL Server. Any custom development uses webservice for dataaccess, on the client side.
Is this number of users on a single instance feasible? if not would allowing it to be access through 2 app pools and 2 instances work with a single database? what kind of performance scalability does the farm enabled mode provide?

Without more details as far as hardware and IIS version it's tough to make a clear call. I'll assume that your SQL server is on a separate box, and for this kind of traffic is should be. I can tell you I have several high volume sites in production. One in particular supports about 2,500 concurrent users, however this site sits on 2 web heads running IIS 7.5. We have (the network admin & myself) noticed that IIS 7.5 is significantly faster than IIS 6. The numbers are even more dramatic that this

Microsoft Performance Analysis

which compares IIS 6 and IIS 7.



In short, I see no problem running on one web head as long as you have good hardware and you're running Windows 2008 R2 and your DB server is on another box.
