    Go here and scroll to the bottom of the page where you will see a section called 'boards.ie Statistics'. :)

    think he means in storage terms

    or maybe it's just because i'm a big nerd and automatically thought that.

    :) Of course, I knew that (ahem). :)
    So, anyone know the size of the database? Admins and one or two SMods can answer this, I'd suspect.

    There was a thread around at some point that said this.

    My money's on ~8GB.

    Its nearly 5 GB now, but having said that, we removed nearly 5 GB of attachments and other stuff from the database and stored it on disk instead recently.

    Sounds quite impressive though if you replace GB for inches & use a penis analogy, i.e.:

    My dick used to be 10", but I chopped off 5" coz it was just too big & cumbersome. :D







    Well that's my excuse & I'm sticking to it.
