Ouch. Jesus..... What mud is this? How many people are usually logged in? How many areas? 40 megs? 30% of a T1 for simple telnet connections? Thats like 450kbits per second of in/output. Hell of a lot for a simple mud doing nothing but text streams to telnet connections dont you think? ******************************************************************* * Ron Hensley ron@dmv.com * * Systems Administrator http://www.dmv.com/~ron * * PGP Key at WWW Page * * DelMarVa OnLine 749-7898 Ext. 403 * ******************************************************************* +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://cspo.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list_faq.html | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
