How much impact is placed on the server, the SQL database, or the forum if folks subscribe to the RSS feeds? Is this a resource hog? Outlook 2007 allows RSS subscriptions and I tried it out by giving it the path to the RSS asp file and it worked great. But, wondering if a lot of folks do this, is there a performance penalty or bandwidth penalty, etc? What's the impact? Thanks. ------------- BillD http://theamcpages.com http://theamcforum.com |

Nobody? Perhaps it's not known? Or perhaps no one wants to admit?  ------------- BillD http://theamcpages.com http://theamcforum.com |

It would be the same impact and loading up any other page within the forum. The time-to-live for the RSS Feeds is set to around 30 to 60 minutes, so most readers should respect this and only ask for an update after this time has expired. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Thanks. That makes perfect sense. And I was being a bit "tongue-in-cheek" before. I tried it with my Outlook 2007 under Vista and WOW, that's GREAT!!!! VERY nice, I get updates right in Outlook! ------------- BillD http://theamcpages.com http://theamcforum.com |
