Has anybody looked at MMBase.. It’s a Netherlands based product – and has some cool core features. Completely OO and java based.

A small comment to memory requirements of Magnolia
Yes there was a time when Magnolia needed lots of memory for INITIAL startup (i.e. for the very first time you ever staarted Magnolia). This as used for populating the repositories by reading bootstrap files, something that makes it easy for us to be able to plug in other repositories or use different databases.

However, Magnolia has always been rather memory efficient to run. When you download Magnolia today, the initial bootstrap has been performed by us (that makes the download bigger but means you have no big memory requirements anymore).

In other words, we have had systems with 8 Million hits per hour on a standard PC server; and you can run Magnolia with 256MB in general (large sites might need more).

Of course its also a matter of which infrastructure you are using. Websphere? JBoss? Tomcat? Jetty? Resin? Weblogic?

Or do you want to use Liferay or JBoss portal with Magnolia? Thats also possible, and will need much more memory than Magnolia.

Thank you apoorv! I will look into the XMLContent feature.

I dint get much time in the last week to try out the CMSs. Next week, am planning to evaluate both openCMS and Magnolia at more deeper level to see which one can be easily customizable. Until now, i am a little inclined towards openCMS since there is a possibility to write our own modules, which AFAIK is not the case with Magnolia (please correct me if i am wrong!).

Will write my results here next weekend…
