Guys (and gals),
This question is for all of you vBulletin users. Approximately how many MySQL connections are you using during peak loads, and how many browsers do you get during these times? Also, how many posts do you receive a day?

Why do I ask? I'm considering my options for expansion. I know for sure most hosts won't appreciate me abusing their MySQL services. I need to know how many MySQL connections I may be using in the future in order to find a host that can accomidate my needs.

Thank you!

(Mods: I hope I hit the right forum with this post...)

I would suggest you ask this question over on the vBulletin discussion forums, and then come back and look for hosts that can support the load you determine you need. There are a significant number of high volume boards over there, and a number of mySQL/PHP resource experts as well.

Just a thought.

Ahh, I didn't think about the vBulletin forums. Thank you.
