www.Wetlook.Com is averaging about 7Gb per day for December so far, so that'll be over 200Gb in the month, all for free !

Merry Christmas

Off Topic - 24 hours bandwidth on StyxWetWorld

By Graham (UK) - graham@styxwetworld.com Sat 20/12/03 20:08:26 GMT

Website:

Just for interest, I thought you'd be interested in the bandwidth use we have just seen on StyxWetWorld in the last 24 hours.

Sure, we just did a huge update and added some bonus movies too. So, we expected a big hit yesterday and for the next few days. But we just seen 24 hours of amazing bandwidth usage and watched our members visiting the site like excited kids at the candy jar. Funny - we also saw a record number of them blocked for breaking the daily download limit which we increased specifically for this period. Note to members - if you are blocked, you'll find it will automatically lift in 24 hours. The machanism is in place to share the site around ALL the members fairly.

Anyway ... to the bandwidth ... in the last 24 hours, we served up 47Gb of data to members.

To put that in perspective --- an "average" Styx day is around 8 to 10Gb --- JW gave away 36Gb in a month on his site --- the Vintage Wet site averages around 35Gb of bandwidth in a month. A normal (if there is such a thing) website might be expected to serve up 5Gb in a month and a typical hosting company would sell you around 10Gb bandwidth for a month.

It's a good job that Styx has TWO 1 Terrabyte servers - that's all that I can say.
