Thank you !!  :)

This looks like a promising add-on.

How would it perform with hundreds of thousands of products?

We have a number of Nopcommerce sites but one of them we were developing wanted to import around 750,000 product lines. We just couldn't get Nop working with that - it ground to a halt.

We ended up moving it to Kartris, (www.kartris.com) which wasn't fully open source (but is now with their latest version, apparently). They had a link on their site to www.mtmc.co.uk which they claim has over 1 million products in it, and the built in search was blindingly fast.

We have another potential customer who has specified that their site might have up to 250,000 product lines - your demo works well with 10k products, but could it handle 25 times as many?

And if so would you do a deal on price - since we can apparently use Kartris for free now (albeit with a footer link)?

Thank you for your review.

Its already on use with one very busy site having more than 100,000 products. And it performs much better than expected. There are several other customers who are taking a trial for their sites with even larger catalogs.

Yes, it will. We welcome you to download trial, install it and test it at your end. I'm sure it will work perfectly even with more products. We had tested it on local server with 1000,000 products (dummy products ofcourse) and it worked well during testing without any performance degradation. We also plan to gradually increase products in our demo site soon.

We're releasing a newer version very soon with following updates:

1. Widgetized Facet Filter Placement
2. Displaying numbers of product found on Search & Catalog, Manufacturer, Tags pages
3. Adding Category Filter (facets) on Search Results page using which your visitors can perform drill-down searches
4. Adding a setting to enable "Search in Product Description" by default
5. Adding a support for Filter by Attribute
6. And several other performance optimization related updates
7. Also fixed issue which causes Error on loading category pages with more than 5000 products mapped

Moreover, we are now separating a one part of the nopAccelerate Solr plugin and making it as a separate standalone plugin which can be used by larger audiences.

Stay tuned for more updates very soon.

Great work. Congratulations!

Do you have an estimated date for when multiple languages and currencies would be supported?
