Slowest Hub PC

[n1ck]

I read a lot about people using p4 3.0ghz processers with a billion Gb's of Ram thoughout this forum. But i want to know who is running the slowest/oldest just to prove it can be done!

P.s im running a 450mhz 256mb ram (hub with 100+ users and dcdm) and it doesnt bother it one bit!

[_Satan_]

whats is ur maximum uptime ?

[n1ck]

Cool - the max ive had mine up for (no puns) is 2 days because of memory probs. Finally sorted that out, should last weeks now

Ps. only a 10gb hdd on mine!

[bolamix]

PII@233 MHz, 128 Mo RAM, 2.3 Gb HD

Average uptime: 9-10 days, but it could probably stay up longer, I just like to restart it now and again

Jeez, i doubt thats going to get beat! Hopefully ppl will see that you dont need a Deepblue to run a hub lol

[bolamix]

Damn, I'm beat
I used to have a PI @ 166 too, but at least it had 64 Mo RAM But it ran like a dream, sometimes for weeks at a time.

Btw "Users (Max/Peak/Logged) : 5000 / 46 / 32" <<< hac is an optimistic hubowner...

[BoJlk]

Running on P4-2.4Ghz/768 MB (PC-2700)/40 GB Maxtor
this is not reallly matters i think.
The connection is more important.

Builded another PC specially for the HUB
PII-400Mhz/256 SDRAM (PC133)/40GB W.D

MY connection is the crapiest there is: 750/96 ADSL
So that's my main problem  ;(

* edit
uptime: 2 weeka/5 days/3 hours

ProtaX Traffic: (November)
download: 361.96 MB
Upload: 6,754.79 MB

[bolamix]

Well a slow connection doesn't help, but at least the PC won't crap out because of "not enough available resources". Slow PC on a slow connection is fine as long as you don't have too many users and/or scripts.
The max I ever hosted in 2 years' time was 120 users, so I don't really need Big Blue

[BoJlk]

Maximum for my connection is around 185 users.
It's heavy!
Usually around 170~180 online and ia takes a big load from my connection.  
The PC can take it.

[Boostland]

I host my hub on a P2 266@300 with 256mb ram running w2k.
Current uptime on pc is 38 days 7hrs would have been more but lost power in a big storm, the longest uptime the pc has had is 52 days I only rebooted that time to install the sasser patches.
The pc has never crashed, I run it in a corner with no monitor, it runs mysql, apache, Dnet, and two ptokax hubs.
One hub is only a backup hub and is ipfiltered and redirects users that are not on the ip allow list to my other hub, for some reason users seem to try to connect to the default port even tho my hub is running on the 412 port and the one on the 411 port is private and not on the hublist.
The longest uptime on the hub was 25 days and was only shut down when I made a mistake and quit the wrong hub :S. So far now it's been only running for 12 days, as I changed some scripts and bot names and had my net go offline for a bit so took the hub down when there was no one in it.
Currently there is 141 users online out of 1226 reg'd users, I only have 256k upload so I like to keep the users below 200 or so.

[BoJlk]

What type of internet Connection do you have?

Sorry but a 1.5ghz 'server' doesnt really qualify as a 'slow hub pc' lol

Max users in mine is 150, any more than that and the lag is unbearable. Im on a 1.5/256 connection.

 After reading all this suddendly my 450mhz hub pc doesnt seem so slow lol

    Total 147 user(s) Max Counted.
    Total 5.844 TB Share Counted

Indeed, anything over 1ghz is overkill for a hub :P

Currently running two hubs, one with 100 users, the other 20
Also runnning a domain controller, and acting as router/firewall.

Eventually it runs out of memory, and I have to restart the larger hub.

[n1ck]

Im surprised server03 let you install it on that!

 Good work tho fella!

[Legion?]

I was going to put it on a P200, but it wouldn't let me as it doesn't have the right kind of processor, so I had to settle for the 366.

It's a little slow - esp when I'm accessing it via Remote Desktop, but it always gets there in the end.

What's the max uptime for a PC before it's overheated or starts acting strange?

P4 2.66 Ghz
768MB

I'net
Down 1024kb
Up 512Kb

Don't know what you need to know more:)

I guess it depends on too many parameters, you can't give an average figure. Every machine is different, and sometimes low-end makes for a longer uptime than high-end

[n1ck]

Just keep banging more fans in it lol Or stick it in a freezer!

 Nice to see people still finding uses for the older PC's!

[BoJlk]

well, i found some dude running his HUB on a Laptop
66 Mhz/32 MB RAM...that's OLD!
