What kind of load? You are not writing anything about the load, except
"Thousands per hour", which could be anything from 1500 to 500000 per hour.
IMHO th einteresting number is the peak per second.
Also "Mostly" read. What ratio? 90% read? or 55%?

I read this somewhere else as well. The bottleneck than was the LAN ;-))

Anyway: I am pretty sure, it will work with TYPO3, but you have to give
some thoughts to the setup, who writes when where, how to cache, what
to cache, reverse proxies, etc. pp.
I am also pretty sure, that i *won't* work with TYPO3, if one sets it up 
wrong.
