Has anyone any info on how much bandwidth per every 50 users on the forum

I have 26 users on my forum at the moment (LIve since tuesday) and ive used over 150 megs in 2 days which is rather worrying

Will disabling the avatars reduce bandwidth?

I think it will but im just confirming it

cheers everybody

 

Alan

You can not determine for sure by the amount of users, you could have 2,000 members but they only use the forum once a year, whereas you could have 100 members but they constently use the forum.

Turning off avatars would reduce bandwidth as there would be less images to download, also reducing the number of topics and posts shown on each page. Turn off any image or file uploading you have also enabled in forums.

That wouldn't make any difference at all as it is the amount of data transferred from the processed ASP page to the web browser, not the data passed from the db to the ASP file.

How would you go about having the db in a separate webspace?  Is it even possible?

I'm very interested to know this because then I could have the db at one hosted webspace all the time, and keep the asp pages at a different webspace that offers unlimited bandwith (but no domain name).  That way the bandwith at the db webspace (the one holding my domain name) will be spared.

You won't spare your bandwidth by placing the database on a different server, when passing data locally it's not included, by placing it on another web space it will be clased as bandwidth by sending out data across the web.
