Hi Jorge,
I have tried using MGOS over a 1Mbit "home" connection. Personally, I think it is too slow and the user experience is disappointing. I would suggest starting at 10Mbit/s. If you are using tiled maps, a single CPU can serve between 50 and 200 tiles per second. Assuming each tile is 10kbytes, the burst traffic rates will be between 5Mbit/sec and 20Mbit/sec. Just as a side note, under "lab" conditions with a quad core Intel Core 2 box I have been able to saturate a 100Mbit/s Ethernet line using pre-generated tiles. MapGuide interactivity is quite dependant on burst rates. From what I have heard, "unmetered" bandwidth plans are often oversubscribed. Even you have a 10Mbit plan, you may never be able to obtain that rate if there are a 100 other sites sharing the same pipe. If you are looking to host somewhere, ask your ISP what you can realistically expect as a burst rate. Thanks, Trevor From: Jorge Rubio [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 20, 2007 9:06 AM To: MapGuide Users Mail List Subject: [mapguide-users] MGOS server harware & bandwidth Hi list I would like to know what kind of hardware are you using as server and the bandwith recomended.
