Those are pretty broad requirements. If a framework can satisfy them or not 
depends more on how you set it up and deploy it (e.g. how many servers you 
run, what kind of load balancing you use, how you serve your static 
content, etc.) than the actual framework you choose, I'd say.

"e-commerce" is also a very broad term. But I'd expect that any of the 
recent web frameworks (certainly including Django) will satisfy your needs 
in some way.

Not that I know of.
