A single thread on a forum I host was the culprit, and the page itself must have 10-15 mysql queries generated by PHP. At one point I had 3,400 simultaneous connections, moving over 20megabits of traffic PER SECOND. I moved at least 100gbs of traffic in 48 hours. All of this was on a tuned dual-processor Opteron 246 with 2 gbs of RAM. So yeah, 25k visitors/week is nothing and can be handled easily by any modern hardware. --Victor On 6/27/07, Nick Kew <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: On Wed, 27 Jun 2007 11:04:57 -0500 "Carlos Oyarzabal" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hello, > > We wait for spikes at first hours every day because the web site will > support a rally. > The pages requested will be mostly static. > The pageviews could reach 3 per visitor. > The queries could reach 5 per visitor. > > Could you suggest me the hardware? Any hardware from this century will have no problem. We had to upgrade a FreeBSD box from 32Mb to 128Mb RAM when traffic went above 1.5 million a month (30k/day). That included quite a lot of dynamic stuff. -- Nick Kew Application Development with Apache - the Apache Modules Book http://www.apachetutor.org/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
