    Currently with one of the large managed WordPress hosts, looking towards the future.

    Hypothetically, how does one scale up a large LearnDash installation to hundreds of concurrent users?

    My search doesn't paint a pretty picture beyond 50-75 concurrent users, but surely there is a way.

    Your research is pretty correct as WordPress does not scale much without caching and LMS due to their nature for logged in users, will not use caching so it's up to server hardware/configuration level optimisation. Like Woocommerce, LMS on WordPress will need to throw alot more server hardware at the solutions.

    Discussed this when I was researching LMS for Centmin Mod and conclusion is non-Wordpress based LMS will scale better like Moodle https://community.centminmod.com/th...ng-management-system-wordpress-plugins.18290/
