16,000+ Products Too Slow for Presta

[Esha]

Hi, I earlier sent the below on PrestaShops email contact from, but got no reply for a month now. Can anyone help? Thanks!

We developed an ecommerce site using your PrestaShop. Now the problem is, it's really slow and even crashed with only 170 active connections (users). We are not confident yet on using it for a large scale ecommerce site.

 

My question is, what kind of support do we need or you can offer in order to improve this PrestaShop's performance?

 

Here are the details of our project:

 

Server: Intel Xeon E3 / 4 Cores @ 3.3GHz / 8G RAM (for Database)

Server: i7 (for Front-End Website)

Server Bandwidth: 20,000GB

Operating System: Linux - Centos 64 bit

 

Number of Products: 16,280

Number of products combinations: approx. 16280 * 8 = 81,400

 

Our Project Team:

1. PHP Programmer

2. SQL Programmer

3. Front-end Design and HTML/PHP programmer

4. Project Lead

 

NOTE: Load test reached 2.9 minutes.
