I would second Sun on that.

Once I worked with extending the backend code of a of a high traffic
website which had grown slow, despite the increasing number of
visitors. That's my idea of web development: huge number of visitors,
and a large budget to scale the whole infrastructure :) Working on
small number of websites is not that interesting.

A friend once said "If it's a client with a small budget, I don't
allow my team to spend more than 2 hours on it".
