Hello Everyone,

I have been coding small apps for web-sites with PHP and MySQL for about 8 months now and seem to be getting along fine with it. As my skills are increasing I am starting to get asked for quotes for much bigger projects and am concerned that I may run into a situation where the applicaion I designed/coded will not stand up well in a multi-user environment (i.e. anywhere from 2 to 50 users at a single time). I was wondering if anyone knew of any resources (books, tutorials, articles, white papers, etc.) that may shed some light on this subject. Doing a Google search on this subject did not seem to reveal much in the way of information and am now even wondering if this is even relevant. Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks...

    This is a very grey area there isnt much you can do there is no set way because everyone codes slightly different. What i usually do is look at something similar to what ive done do some bench marking which usually requires seeing how it takes for the page to load, get a few friends all at once to just go through the entire site if they know how to do testing to try and do some attacks to see if they can break it etc (good way to make sure its secure).
