how many players can a server with 8 GB ram and 6 cores CPU handle?

alpine comet
#

to be honest 8 gigabytes of ram isnt bad

#

not that bad

open vortex
#

i mean, whats the max capacity

#

say, 30 tps

alpine comet
#

you'll get your answer now

mossy plaza
#

if it helps, our european server used to run on a 4core 4gb ram vps only 1-2 months ago

alpine comet
#

he is typing

mossy plaza
#

never struggled

open vortex

#

so the answer is probably, high enough that you would never reach it

mossy plaza
alpine comet
#

Basically as much a thousand

#

or possibily more

mossy plaza
#

we have 8k concurrent online ppl every day

#

on the EU server

alpine comet
#

okay if that sparked to 20k concurrent

#

would that break the servers

mossy plaza
#

It'd probably not be doing good

#

who knows

alpine comet
#

We'll never know

mossy plaza
#

bandwidth is the most limiting factor

#

our cpu usage isn't that bad but sometimes we hit the 1gbit bandwidth limit

alpine comet
#

thanks for the new information

#

i would recommend tps that's a factor of 240

#

30, 60, 120

#

60 and 30 is battle tested and should be ok, never tried anything above that

#

but yes, your server should deal with that just fine

open vortex
#

fine then

#

thank you

@mossy plaza just a quick question
if 1000 players enter one level, does it have the same impact on the server as 1000 players just playing whatever they want

and if 1000 players do enter one level, what impact does that have on a user's pc? will everything lag?

mossy plaza
#

both the user pc and the server

#

for the server the load for processing each packet is O(n^2)

#

it has to tell 1000 people about the state of other 999 people
