I've been looking around at the different sites that are beta-testing vB 2.0 - Are there any boards that are very active being tested? My board generally has atleast 30-40 people on it at all times and in the afternoons and evenings has well over 100 active users. I haven't seen any boards being tested with traffic even close to this amount and am hoping that someone will be testing it before it's released.

brookelyn, Carrie's (Me2Be) forums are busier than that and are running 2.0 without a problem. I know she doesn't advertise her URL here, so if you'd like to see them, send her a PM and I'm sure she'll let you know where to find them to take a peek.

VB-World, at peak times can have up to 100 users online at one time. Pop in between 4-6pm UK time to see. We have also been having fairly large numbers of people online on these forums at the same time recently.

Hmmm... really? Does she just have alot of members or active members online. I'm looking at her site right now and she has 34 members online on her board. I have 92 and am in the range of 80-120 active members online from around 3-7pm everyday - my boards slow down ALOT when there are more than 50 people on the board and I'd really like to see a beta site running with 100+ active users online

You caught us at a slow time -- we usually average around 60-70 in the mornings. We aren't going to be upgrading our big board (which averages 125-160 people) until Friday but if the beta isn't released before then, you can check it out Friday afternoon.

When I was on earlier today, there were a total 180+ people on 4 of the 6 vB's on this server and I saw a few spikes in the load, but keep in mind that it isn't properly indexed yet. :)

We typically average 250-320 people online at the same time. Has anyone tested vb2 at this level?
