Down Time?
Moderator: General Moderators
Is phpbb capable of handling such a high load of traffic and sheer number of posts? I've often wondered this in the past. I've never done any kind of testing. phpbb3 seems to be better in every area, so maybe this won't happen as much (but I doubt that's the problem).
In either case, it's an interesting thought. I think a custom forum for devnet would be sweet (*cough*DNA*cough*)

Set Search Time - A google chrome extension. When you search only results from the past year (or set time period) are displayed. Helps tremendously when using new technologies to avoid outdated results.

That would be Gaia Online.JAB Creations wrote:What is the largest forum in the world? In general (minimal or no modifications) and whatever would be a good model for the server's hardware what is the general range of activity PhpBB can handle? Is there some sort of comparison with other forum software?
