After research XOOPS for a couple of months, I would say that I love xoops. It is really easy to write custom extension to its core, from a developer's stand point. My question now is how big the site that a XOOPS site can support? The site I am developing will have two custom applications on top of XOOPS 2.0.18.1, but my applications do not share the same database with xoops. The applications only need to get the uid from xoops, when they write to their databases. At XOOPS side, I may only have the basic XOOPS install with extended profile management module, and perhaps an article management module.

I am relatively new to web site administration, with the site configuration mentioned above, can anyone here give a ballpark number how big the site can grow (in turns of registered user, site traffic, and else?)?

I read a similar post here about large sites, https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=64070&forum=7&post_id=289055#forumpost289055
How big these sites are?

Appreciate your response.
