I am setting up sites using Plone and am concerned to read some of the comments on it. Is it really that bad performance wise?
"it depends", unless you have a lot of experience with it, Zope and CMF, you might well find yourself with a slow site on your hands and not many apparent options ;-)
I'm using CMFMember also-why is it 'apalling'?
It's an incredibly heavyweight and inefficient solution to a problem that requires an extremely fast and efficient solution: user object are used a LOT in most Zope apps, CMFMember makes them slow, in a numbner of ways. Generating writes which result in AT-based member objects being reindexed and often resulting in conflicterrors that dramatically slow down a site is not a good thing... cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
