Attention Please - Server Test

[thewizeard]

300 + and all going well!

Darker, how many users do you think the board(server) can handle, do you think it can handle, let's say 500?

Well thats a very good question.

VBulletin is the best forum software around and can handle more or less 700 unique visitors. Most huge boards use VB because of this,

The problem with all free boards is that they are not really optimized for huge sites / load and can handle between 250 - 450 users depending on the server / cpu / ram etc

325 user(s) active in the past 15 minutes did result in a server load of 1.20 - 2.13 which is not too bad. A server can handle loads of x - 7.0 without a problem but the 2.13 max with 325 is pretty good.

I guess it will handle max 450 cause the software

I wish some prople would code a lite forum that can handle more by using only required queries / optimized queries etc.

Then up to 2048 would be no problem on a server

I'd code it, if you wanted me to. I'd just need you to tell me what you'd consider the queries to use, and I'd use only them... A lot of stuff is really not needed, you're right.
