Extremely high. I wouldn't go near it myself.

It took about a month after upgrading to the latest MoinMoin to get it

I'm afraid I don't have any figures, but can say that Cocoon's wiki is
amongst the top three Apache wikis in terms of size.

Exactly my thoughts... The only way in which I could see Daisy fit to handle that load, if it were to publish the pages entered as static files, then served off by Apache itself, without involving Cocoon (the same technique used by MovableType, for example). Without that in place, I'd be -1 on hosting anything live of Cocoon on the ASF infrastructure, even with massive caching, because of the maintenance task we'd put on the infrastructure team, and the possible impact this would have on projects other than Cocoon itself (it's a shared infrastructure, we have to play it nice).
