Sorry, no. I think there may be performance problem running online games on top of liferay.

There isn't a simple answer to your question. You'll have to do performance tests. I usually in production system before it's released.

Hi Hitoshi could you please let me know how you are doing performance testing i mean to what tool you are using for performance testing and what factors you are verifying before any site goes to production

Most projects have SLA requirements which may slightly differ between users. Most of the time, it includes maximum number of concurrent sessions and response time.
Liferay's white paper on performance includes results from these tests. I recommend doing your own tests. Unfortunately, I don't have any user using Flash.

Not sure why this is showing up so high on the category but ... There is the Page type "Embedded", which essentially iFrames a site into a Liferay page. 


Steps in 7.1 and above (works in 7.0 and below too)
0) Host the game external to Liferay site, maybe with Apache instead of Tomcat, whatever works.
1) Add a public page
2) Select Embedded
3) Add the URL of the hopefully at this point HTML5 game to show in iFrame.

Liferay people reading: There's a years old bug here with DXP and embedded pages ... the height of the iFrame, it doesn't always scale to show a reasonable height. I'm as tired of reporting bugs honestly as you guys are LOL. It's fixable by users with the look and feel options in the page configuration.

Look and feel is a friend.
