Tried doing this with WP but... Yeah long story but here it is finally save for the formatting issues with the main view. http://ioio.ca
ioio.ca is the focal redirect of five other large classified ad sites. I'm sure the bots will never stop getting 404's.
ioio.ca is hosted on a Lustre filesystem for 8.1TB of storage that I also share with my MythTV setup. http://ioio.ca/phpsysinfo
If I had to do it all over again I would make sites for other countries besides Canada. For instance the United States and I even have data or tried that at one point.
Drupal is the most efficient when dealing with multiple sites. The Classified module of course plays a big part and it made showcasing itself easy for multiple sites.
The modules and blocks are at a minimum. All the sites are done in 86 tables for a total database size of 86 tables and 4.3MB of drive. I've seen the database well in excess of 200MB with long access_log entries.
The long and the short of it after dealing extensively with Post Nuke type deployments that ran over 20000 tables in a database to trying the same with wordpress in around 9000 tables the runner up was Post Nuke and the winner Drupal.

It is a very busy site lately with redirects from five other domains that I scratched in favour of this one. Nothing bad at the site. I don't use virus stuff but thanks for the heads up although I don't no what to do or even if I should about it.
Looks and Works Well.
Here it is finished in all white stark theme with views for the categories via a block and a grid. If I knew how to make the table view it would of course be best. Domain access works to power individual content to over 300 sites all in the blink of an eye. http://toronto.ioio.ca
