The Yahoo! team had to re-architect several parts of the framework to  
get it to do what they wanted.  Regardless of that, I hear they were  
having some significant scaling issues.  The Firefox Add-ons portal  
(https://addons.mozilla.org/) was built on CakePHP, and you can check  
out the source code here: http://svn.mozilla.org/addons/trunk/site/ 
app/.  To date, the site has handled the arguably higher load without  
a hitch.
