I had the following on my old forum:
Threads: 100k+ Posts: 300k+ Members: 7,000+ And I was on a shared host, the forum ran smooth with no problems. I always had roughly 10-20 people online. |

From what I basically tell (and someone can correct me if I am wrong), but it won't really be the number of users per say, but basically from all the stuff you have on your site how much memory/cpu is going to be used at any given time by your site. I noticed your site has a lot of subforums and what looks like a decent chunk of mods. So really it depends on how much load those mods put on your site, but if you are having problems right now it may be an errant script or a mod that needs updated more than the number of users you have on your site.

My load averages were lower than yours but my ISP allotted Kmem and other stats so that they could force me to upgrade before it normally would have been needed. It appears you got as much out of your vps as could ever be expected. You got at least 1/4 further than I did before upgrading.

VPS can handle like well over 100 people online at a time. I've had VPS servers handle from 150-300 users at once with no problems before.
512MB gaurenteed ram, with up to 2GB burstable and it had no problems. |

My VPS is only guaranteed 20% of the CPU power on my node and it can burst up to 96% , Maybe you were allotted more CPU %
