I am not an expert in design patterns ... so I can't really debate with you there.

However, you can query multiple databases from Drupal:
http://drupal.org/node/18429

Also, in terms of traffic capacity, Drupal does scale well, and I've found it reasonably well documented:

Plus Drupal has numerous sites that prove its high-traffic capacity:

Also, you mention Joomla 1.5 as being impressive, but I have yet to find an actual high-traffic site being hosted on Joomla, nor have I heard of hundreds of sites being hosted on one Joomla installation (like Drupal can do).

Also, *this* site is using Drupal....
