Why? I'm not questioning the design decisions underlying SmallWiki (au
contraire, I think they are very sound), I'm questioning your bringing
it up as a better candidate then Seaside, HV, and whatnot :-).

And I like that a lot. I do hope to steal a lot more work from SmallWiki
than just the parser (as I already did ;-)).

I'm an expert on heavy loads. The answer is in 99% of the cases a
loadbalancer and more hardware. And hardware is extremely dirt cheap -
a 19" 1 unit high pizza box has a pricetag of around 2 days worth of
developer time and you amortize it over 36 months...
