Yes. It is possible. Using ERP5Catalog (rather than pure ZSQLCatalog) allows 
to catalog tens of millions of documents with great performance.

We have setup pure CMF sites as well as CPS sites with ERP5Catalog as a 
dropin replacement to ZCatalog. It worked and eliminated bottlenecks which 
prevent scalability with ZCatalog. I am sure the same would be very easy to 
do with plone. There is no howto though.

If you want to go this way, I recommend you:
	- if you have time, analyse how the catalog is used in ERP5 LiveCD and take 
time to write a howto for plone 
	- if you are in hurry, to ask a commecial service provider to do it

	- please also read this:

http://wiki.erp5.org/HowToAddTableToCatalog
http://erp5.org/workspaces/project/erp5_brasil/documentacao_dos_pro/groupware/howto_create_a_full/view

which give a very good idea of how to setup a catalog

JPS.
