We are starting on our third Zen Cart site and need some input.
How can I get an idea of how "big" a Zen Cart installation can get. For example, can it handle 100 transactions per hour? 500 transactions? More? Can ZenCart be used for sites that my have up to a 300% increase in daily transactions say between one day and the week before Christmas or Valentine's Day?
I realize that this is highly dependent on the hosting and hardware configuration but I am looking for some general experience in how Zen cart handles traffic and transaction load.
Also, has anybody had a need to split their Zen Cart installation so that the database is running on a completely separate server than the main site? (Can this even be done?)
Any concerns as to the number of required reads / writes to the site database?
Anyone out there wish to share some stories / sites that are "high volume" and may fit this criteria?
Thanks!!
