That number includes redirects and error pages but excludes images, <span class="caps">CSS</span> and static javascript (we dynamically generate some JS for blog posting).</p> Mon, 06 Mar 2006 22:40:00 -0800 urn:uuid:0a210671d7f3d52797a216ab7e0a5bd3 drbrain@segment7.net (Eric Hodel) http://blog.segment7.net/articles/2006/03/06/2-5-million Rails Robot Co-op <p>glandium: I&#8217;m marking my own accomplishments as a sysadmin and my company&#8217;s accomplishments as a successful website, nothing more.</p> Mon, 06 Mar 2006 20:13:32 -0800 urn:uuid: http://blog.segment7.net/articles/2006/03/06/2-5-million#comment-73 <p>glandium: it is very unlikely that you have 30 req/s evenly distributed.</p> Mon, 06 Mar 2006 20:13:32 -0800 urn:uuid: http://blog.segment7.net/articles/2006/03/06/2-5-million#comment-68 <p>Ian: We only use typo for our blog which gets nowhere near even 2.5 million hits per day.</p> <p>43 Things and friends are all custom code without any page caching or fragment caching.

I&#8217;d be very curious on what you have powering your sites.</p> <p>How many concurrent users did you peak out at?</p> Mon, 06 Mar 2006 20:13:32 -0800 urn:uuid: http://blog.segment7.net/articles/2006/03/06/2-5-million#comment-65 <p>Hi Eric. I noticed that robotcoop is using typo as a base.</p> <p>Do you have stats on how many of these page views actually hit rails as opposed to just serving the static html is generates?</p> <p>congrats on getting 2.5m page views in a day.. thats pretty impressive.</p> Mon, 06 Mar 2006 20:13:32 -0800 urn:uuid: http://blog.segment7.net/articles/2006/03/06/2-5-million#comment-69 <p>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.</p> Mon, 06 Mar 2006 20:13:32 -0800 urn:uuid: http://blog.segment7.net/articles/2006/03/06/2-5-million#comment-67 <p>Yeah, how about some details? That&#8217;d be way better than just the number of hits. Thought that&#8217;s still impressive.</p> Mon, 06 Mar 2006 20:13:32 -0800 urn:uuid: http://blog.segment7.net/articles/2006/03/06/2-5-million#comment-64 <p>Cool. Do you need a clustering of any kind to serve that many requests?</p> Mon, 06 Mar 2006 20:13:32 -0800 urn:uuid: http://blog.segment7.net/articles/2006/03/06/2-5-million#comment-63 <p>I&#8217;ll put up a post on our architecture in the next couple of days.</p> Mon, 06 Mar 2006 20:13:32 -0800 urn:uuid: http://blog.segment7.net/articles/2006/03/06/2-5-million#comment-71
