Yes, Euphoria is very capable of that. I plan on ultimately building an
integrated forum module for my BBCMF. I do not know how well it will scale!
One day I'd like to put it to the test, but these days I've got 20 projects
going on at one time- two of which are a teenage boy and a teenage girl. ;)

If you look at the bottom of that page, it gives a few stats. The home page
is running about 41 queries and spitting out the web page in about 1.4 secs.
That's probably not good enough for a forum, but the code is not optimized
at all. Sometimes I drool thinking what could be if a Parnell or Lewis or
CChris or Lomax or any of the leet Euphoria programmers got their hands on
it. Maybe one time I could sponsor some help in that area! :)

Of course, when I turn on caching, it serves it up in less than a second,
but I don't see how caching would help a forum module... Well, yes I do
but I would really like to see what Euphoria can do without having to
resort to a cache solution (though MOST software HAS TO, even C).
