Here SysOps can list their MultiPlayer server info and users can send feedback to their SysOps. Or just talk about the MultiPlayer servers they play on. This is not about MultiPlayer in general - please use the MultiPlayer Forum for that!

Should manage 6 to 8 players if it's dedicated - although it will struggle if most of those players are in combat. Any more and you'll start getting lag.

My advice would be start somewhere around there and watch the FLServer latency meter, CPU load and RAM usage when the server is full and adjust the user limit until the latency bar spends most of it's time hovering around the upper end of the green and low/mid yellow.

I have seen admins posting what type of hard drive they use as IF it participates in the performance of the server *LOL -Once the server loads, everything is in memory. You can practicaly pull the drive out and have the server work just fine. Unfortunately windows won't like it. As far as the character file is conserned it is mostly under 100k that takes miliseconds to load. If you dont know that your as stupid as a hollow rock.
