Quelle est la charge légère ou lourde en termes d'utilisation du serveur ?

Hi,

Thinking of converting several big XenForo forums into discourse in the future if XenForo development continues to degrade.

How much discourse needs in terms of server specs needed for a big enough forum?

One forum I have has:

  • 8-10k new posts daily
  • 800-1k new topics daily
  • 16-17k daily logged-in users
  • 70-80k unique users daily, including guest
  • 8-10TB daily bandwidth usage
  • 25GB MySQL Database

Right now, with XenForo 2.3 plus 60+ 3rd party plugins, I use this server configuration:

  • Intel Xeon-E 2288G, 8c/16t
  • 128GB DDR4 ECC 2666MHz

Does discourse require more RAM or CPU, or can it handle fine with the same specs?

By the way, I cannot afford the pricing of hosted plans, so my only option is to self-host discourse.

I would recommend a cdn and assets on s3, but I think you’d likely be ok.

Yes, I’m already using Cloudflare for this.

Will use CF R2 also.
