mmmhhh

Thanks for th link. I saw this when I used the search function. But AFAIK this is only theoretically calculated, not tested in real life situations.

I have a dedicated server, 2MB RAM, AMD Opteron 148. So as far as I can see, RAM would be enough.

But I still would love to hear from someone who actually used this software which a userlevel like this

For real life testing I personnaly can only say that the official demo page can handle easily 20 simultaneous users.
But I didn't seen more users on this page for now.

The problem is how much users the server can manage... if timeout is 2 sec, and there is 20 users it is like 600 visits on normal page per 1 minute... :/ i'm afraid the server could have some problems.

I suggest to tune your refresh_delay depending on the number of simultaneous users on your server.
If your server is slow, just incresse the refresh_delay parameter.
