Can CMSMS handle big data?

[magallo]

Hi all,
i'm about to develop a real estate website with 1M+ property listings with search and filtering functionalities. Do you think CMSMS will be able to handle the load easily?
What module would you recommend for the property listings? Listit2? Maybe something similar?
Thanks for the feedback.

I'm fairly sure there are some notes in help for ListIt that suggest it is NOT suitable for large data sets. I believe Calguy published some test results during CMSMS v2 development relating to the number of pages a site was tested with. From memory it was 100,000s+. But that was the core not a module.

If you are going to have that big of a module it is usually suggested that you have a module custom made that is optimized for your unique needs.

From ListIt2 (on a V1 site) help section:

An important note of warning - This is not a content construction kit, such as in Drupal. It is meant for small listings, not to store thousands of records. This is because of the database model used (EAV). Also, each bit of data you enter is stored as TEXT data type, regardless of whether it is varchar, boolean, timestamp, etc.

Thanks for the reply however Listit was just a module i'm familar with. I could build the tables myself and grab the data anytime i suppose. I was trying to find out if there's a module already there that could help me with my task.

I have a website in CMSMS hosting real estate listings that I built using the Products module. Am in the process of upgrading it to CMSMS 2.0.

On the old version I used ListIt2 to manage a few simple things like documents. I'm wondering if it is safe to continue using ListIt in version 2.0 or if there is a comparable module that is being maintained?
