I agree and those are the things we need to do better as a community.

give more reliability.
I believe there is a list of projects on the WIKI but when I looked
several months ago... I don't recall any sites that I would classify as
large / complicated.
First we asked our boss who uses it? We need a hold up heavy
workloads. We do not know if can create large,wide projects on
Stripes. If the traffic can really hold? For this we look at Stripes
Around The Web.
Understood. The great news is that Stripes is not a very heavy
framework as such I can't see how it can't be used to build large scale
projects.
I don't see why it wouldn't be able to handle high traffic and heavy
work loads. With that said I personally believe that a large site
should be architected foremost to include things like horizontal
scalability in mind and as such if performance is an issue more servers
can be added. Of course this is valid to a point - if there are severe
performance deficiencies in the framework then its another story.
Also a large site would benefit from good design that includes things
like caching at all levels (JSPs - if you can - we will for some,
Services caching, DB caching, clustered caching - we might use memcached
for some smaller global things, etc...) as that in itself can
"extremely" improve a sites scalability. Case in point Facebook (built
with PHP) once upon a time was rumoured to have over 500 memcached
caching servers to compensate for the fact that PHP is quite DB
intensive... but nonetheless demonstrates how important caching is in
some large sites. Other things to consider is DB sharding - we did and
have built that on top of Stripersist.
Im interested to know if with Stripes can build large projects with
lots of traffic. Of course a lot depends on how to program, but I mean
Framework structure.
Well. We are going to find out soon. We are building a large social
community site that will invite 600K users and launch in 8 virtualized
countries in 2 languages initially (English and Spanish) and is being
built for more countries and languages. We are heavily invested in
Stripes as "the" framework for this project and will definitely put it
to its test. We will be using Oracle Web Server (RP), GlassFish (AS)
and MySQL (DB).
We also plan on launching with a 3 tier - 6 server LB'd configuration -
in a US data center and will be looking towards adding datacenters in
Europe and later in Australia. Also we will leverage CDN's to deliver
resources which improve web browser response times but also reduces /
offloads serving static content from our data centers.
So to make long story short, we will find out soon enough how well
Stripes puts up with what we expect to be quite heavy workload /
processing, but regardless I personally would focus on architecture and
design foremost as a UI framework is but one component and if your
architecture and / or design isn't adequate... it won't matter how well
Stripes itself performs... as you'll have bigger problems to worry about.
In any event, this is merely an opinion at this point. We do hope to
provide tangible data to directly answer your question post launch :-)
Hope this helps.
