Only using 45 MB disk on server and bandwidth has yet to be an issue for us.

Does anyone else feel slightly weird when we start comparing size?

Can I play?

Sorry, I couldn't get the BW or size because I don't have that access at this time.

We are on a colo machine, dual PIII 933 w/ 1GB of PC133

Bandwidth is more of an issue than server speed, we average 30% idle on each proc, but are currently maxing out our 1 MBPS line over 40% of the day.

Attachments are disabled, and board image files have been custom constructed to allow an average of 500-600 bytes per image.

See Eva's info on limiting bandwidth.....you will more than likely run into big $$ there before you run into server slow downs.

I prune back to three days every day or two

My board is so active that it chews up over 2 GIGS of bandwidth a DAY. Takes up 27 megs of hd space.

I've been running VB for about a week and like it a lot!

Where is eva2000's article on limiting bandwidth?

[mondaynightmike]

19 members, 51 threads, 448 threads, last month i used about 100mb bandwidth. I am allowed 600mb altogether.
Very small forums i know, only been up for a month.

I also don't have a vbulletin, can't afford it. when I get a job I might consider them though, since they are coool

[ladyfyre]

do a search for any post by eva2000 and you will see lots of stuff in his signature worth reading

Eva is my hero *grinz*

Well...he is my third favorite hero. PPN is my favorite hero, because he does awesome work for me from time to time (When he isn't too busy that is, hence me having to find someone else for the big stuff!!!) FireFly is my second, cause he writes the majority of the hacks I find useful.

Alanis is my fifth, because she makes such incredible music, and after that, it all gets fuzzy....but surely Steven King, Anne Rice, and Dean Koontz belong somewhere in the mix.....who knows?
