Plone system resources for a small site
This article explains what kind of system resources are needed to run small Plone sites, specifically running a small site with few content objects and no dynamicity, e.g. a static company web site and not many hits.
Content management system Plone and its application server Zope are designed for scalability and flexibility, so fixed resource costs per Plone site might be high compared to other solutions (ASP, PHP).

Since July 2006, Amnesty International Switzerland has used Plone for its multilingual (German, French, Italian, and English) website.
