any fairly large production sites on IIS/PHP out there?

[Travis Raybold <travis@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

i am trying to switch our application over to PHP (currently ASP). 
unfortunately, due to the complexity of both the code and the site setup 
(hundreds of sites using the same code) it needs to be a sectional 
replacement. given that and the lack of in house support for linux/unix, 
the only realistic option is to run PHP and ASP side by side on the same 
windows box.

recent testing on windows IIS/PHP has not instilled me with a lot of 
confidence, seeing it use tons more resources than i would expect and 
crashing periodically.

are there any fairly large sites out there using PHP on IIS? (we get 
~500k hits/day, on reasonably complex pages, and are set up with two 
load balanced web servers connecting to an array of database servers.) i 
would love to get input from anyone running a similarly sized or larger 
site on what they do to accomodate PHP in windows. Zend? FastCGI? others?

thanks in advance,

--travis
