There are over 420 sites using this product right now, and about 20% of them don't have the hardware to serve all the calls.

Play with the settings...

lower the idle time for the user (default is 5 mins)
lower the time for the topic to be active (default is 5 mins)
make the query interval higher (default is 2 seconds)

... Dont just install this knowing that you have a site with high traffic and hardware that doesn't have wiggle room and expect that it will be fine on your server out of the box.

Lynne what are your settings? Maybe he can use them.

I developed this in mind of highload sites.

Are you saying then, that you are confident your mod is okay on a dual core, dedicated server with 4gig ram ?

Because when I installed it, lowered the settings, and put it live, I had around 550+ users on the one thread - my server spiked badly almost bringing everything to a standstill.

Your mod has huge potential, but I really do question it's useability on high use boards.
