But when it comes to implementing a solution very quickly I find Drupal/Wordpress a good enough choice. I've been involved with couple of sites running Drupal and Wordpress having a moderate amount of traffic and haven't had any problems. One other aspect of Drupal/Wordpress is that the code-base is actively tested by a large user community. True, someone can probably do better in terms of optimizing SQL queries. For people having not enough time to write AND test all aspects of a CMS just to get a website up and running, those are good choices, IMO. Fred, true that. Agreed.

And as for the huge amounts of memory Drupal manages to eat up... Why anyone who is a halfway decent programmer would want to carry on with Drupal after "dating" it, is a mystery.
