It’s a VPS with 2Tb of space storage. CPU is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620 v2 @ 2.10GHz, 6 cores
The thing is, I’m reviving an old forum who got crushed because of Facebook. It had 25K users (planning to send them a beautiful Email to get back)
Average visits per day was around 6K unique visits. It used a personal forum script that I wrote from scratch and was using around 24MB / process. I was new to development so it was not well optimized.
There were times when I was pulling my hair because of performance. So it’s still of big worry for me.
Discourse sounds like a perfect replacement for the old fashioned forum I had.
