Default Re: A ton of people online!

Well, Rita wins the prize! I played around with the settings yesterday, because I noticed that the majority of sites use 60 minutes versus the 10 minutes we're accustomed to. While the 60 minute view provides you with a good idea of the traffic through a board, the 10 minute setting provides a better idea of who is actually online at that very minute.

My "experiment" wasn't without purpose, though. On what is one of our slowest days of the week (Sunday) we had an absurd amount of traffic through here...I would say we would have *easily* saw numbers inthe 200s (at least!) had I left the 60 minute setting on our heavy use days. So, my server log was right...we ARE getting an enormous amount of traffic through this site. Thanks!
