I have 1mbit upstream. When people are dispersed across multiple zones, I can easily support ~45 players before people complain about lag.
What I am talking about here is having ~25 people in one zone doing a raid and every single person in the zone being booted to the login screen from the zone.exe crashing.
It does not seem like a bandwidth problem or a memory problem because my logs don't indicate that.
Does anyone here have anecdotal information such as supporting 50+ person raids on certain hardware/software specs? I am running the latest peq distro with numerous db and quest related customizations, but everything else is out of the box.
Are there any kind of configuration changes I should consider? Maybe I should reduce the number of zones I am using? Right now I have ~21 static and 15 dynamic zones.
