Distrowatch Comments On Getting Distrowatched
Check out the math.
The number of visitors on DistroWatch has now gone well past the 50,000-per-day mark, and while this is nowhere near Slashdot or other major sites, we are dealing with files of substantial sizes. If only 1% of those 50,000 people decide to download your 650MB ISO image, they will consume 325GB of your bandwidth! And if you offer 3 ISO images and 10% of the visitors want them, the bandwidth consumption goes up, theoretically speaking, to 10.5TB!
