On Saturday March 4th the sites of The Robot Co-op handled 2,587,240 requests through Rails. That number includes redirects and error pages but excludes images, CSS and static javascript (we dynamically generate some JS for blog posting).

glandium: I’m marking my own accomplishments as a sysadmin and my company’s accomplishments as a successful website, nothing more.

glandium: it is very unlikely that you have 30 req/s evenly distributed.

Ian: We only use typo for our blog which gets nowhere near even 2.5 million hits per day.

43 Things and friends are all custom code without any page caching or fragment caching. The numbers listed did go through rails and were gathered by pl_analyze:

Great. I’d be very curious on what you have powering your sites.

How many concurrent users did you peak out at?

Hi Eric. I noticed that robotcoop is using typo as a base.

Do you have stats on how many of these page views actually hit rails as opposed to just serving the static html is generates?

congrats on getting 2.5m page views in a day.. thats pretty impressive.

2.5 million requests/day is slightly less than 30 req/s. What is so impressive ? A single php/mysql server can cope with that.

Yeah, how about some details? That’d be way better than just the number of hits. Thought that’s still impressive.

Cool. Do you need a clustering of any kind to serve that many requests?

I’ll put up a post on our architecture in the next couple of days.
