Hi
Can anyone tell me ,which is the ubb with the most visits any hour of the day ? I would like to tell a couple of things with my host about the efficiency of ubb scripts because the only thing he's telling me it's that cgi scripts are lame thats why my forum is slow as a turtle

They usually have 50-200 people online at a time smile There are quite a few others that are busier, but my brain isn't in gear yet this am smile

http://www.hostboard.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi is the busiest one, but they edited their UBB to use MySQL (instead of flatfile).

ls1.com used to have ubb with 35 thousand members, but anyway, they had anywhere from 200-400 members online at any given time

I cant think of any URL's off the top of my head but Ive visted a boat load of sites thats had well over 50 thousand members and 500+ members online at a time.

You may try Baptist Board. This forum has probably the largest percentage of active members per total members. Further, this is a standard UBB (no hacks) with more than 100 users online almost all the time (even after 3:00AM)

It depends what your measure of traffic is?

Raw hits?
Posts/Replies?
Members?
Average Members Online?
MB/GB of traffic?

In addendum, your host should also know that its not cgi scripts (perl scripts I assume they mean) that are "lame." More likely it is their low cost disks that make the flat file storage method "lame."
