Dear Marilyn

I confirm the emails from Adam and Steve. We have course sites with 20 000+ students, but all tools where a profile/data of students is loaded or displayed as the first step, they are slow - see their list. We are not yet using gradebook and assignments. In these sites we use the very minimum of tools.

Kind regards

Hi,
I was wondering what the maximum # of participants or students are
possible in a Sakai Site.
For our first year reading initiative, we have a request to have the
entire freshman class of 1600 be enrolled in one site.
Does anyone have experience managing  projects or classes in Sakai with
1000 + participants? Could you comment on peformance? Managing large
numbers of users in groups, gradebook, assessments.
I've already noticed that the "drop box" cannot be searched for a
particular user. It would be nice to be able to sort the drop boxes by
participant groups.
