which package?

[ray]

Hi,

My forum has a little over 2000 members..About 40,000 page views a day..with about 70-400 simulatanious users online. Which venturesonline dedicated package would you recommend? Also how much ram will I need.

Thanks!

well i'm using VO's dedicated plan 4 - dual p3 866, 768mb ram with 18gb scsi

my whole server serves around 80,000 - 100,000 pageviews/day and is flys very comfortably :D

You should also take into account projected growth i.e. how many new members and page view increases each month?

I'd say at least P3 866 or higher with at least 512 - 1024mb ram

make sure you have your hard drive /usr and /var partitions set to have adequate size to handle mysql database files and web traffic logs (which on VO servers are at /usr/local/apache/domlogs)
