kgeissler 0 Posted June 18, 2001 We are running IIS 4 and website was hammered this weekend. CPU was at most %75, but everything was really slow. We had 450 users on the machine at all times. So I need to know, does anyone know how many users would saturate a T1 line? I am trying to figure out if our bottleneck is the T1 line. Share this post Link to post
Halz 0 Posted June 23, 2001 Shouldn't you be able to examin the network traffic in that time frame? Possibly see if it becomes linear at a certain point..? (you could then trace how many users were on at the point by which it became linear and see if the addition of other users had any effect on the total data transmitted (if you are running a high bandwidth service...)

CUViper 0 Posted June 23, 2001 if 450 users pull simultaneously from a T1, that leaves only about 500 bytes/second of bandwidth for each user - I would call that saturated! If you're really getting that kind of traffic, then I would definitely look into getting more bandwidth... Share this post Link to post
