this is what I read on a forum of a local asp forum application.
the author has some comments on php+mysql and the other one says:
a normal php+mysql forum can handle 1million posts, 1000 online users by generating a page in less than 20 ms, and none asp forum can do that.
what's your idea/experience on this?

| its a rather dumb and meaningles statement, since it is entirely dependant on the hardware underneath it, and what other load is on the serve at the time. |

It's also meaningless since it really is commenting on forum code more than any hardware/software platform.
I will guarantee MS Sql Server can handle well over 1,000,000 rows in tables with effeciency.
There is a large group of anti-MS people who just love to post stuff like this without any real information to back up their comments. :)

Yes I know it's quite a meanlingless statement.
I was just wondering if it's real that no asp forum on an average server with that load could be that fast.
Another comment there is classic asp itself is not as fast as .net or php, as the latter two do more pre compiling or something like that. I myself has no experience on php but I've made the impression that php has more functions built in.
Actually I choose asp because of snitz. I was looking for a forum with experience only on html then. One of the reasons I chosed snitz is quite simple: All php forum I looked then show links to admin only sections and snitz has them hidden. [;-)] I know this is minor and it has nothing to do with the script tech itself, but I really don't like it that way and hate the logic to show it.
Well, I myself don't mind which scripts to use, and I'll stick with what I have as long as it meets my needs.
I remember we've just had a discussion here on snitz about asp and php and people here also has quite different view on php also  |

| No way that MySQL can handle that load. When it comes down to that, MS SQL is the way to go. MySQL isn't even a real database application in a sense. |

I'll have to disagree with this, MySQL is a quite capable db and there are many mysql db's with multi-million records.

I also have to disagree.
Have you ever worked with MySQL and if so, what version was it? Have you looked at the recent 4.x versions? Have you looked at the InnoDB table type?
Take a look at the success stories listed on their site. There are major companies using MySQL to support very large applications.
