Failed miserably for a friend of mine with just 300 concurrent users running on a shared VPS instance, I forgot about the configuration, but it had 2GB RAM for sure. From http://docs.moodle.org/23/en/Installing_Moodle *The general rule of thumb is that Moodle can support 10 to 20 concurrent users for every 1GB of RAM, but this will vary depending on your specific hardware and software combination and the type of use. 'Concurrent' really means web server processes in memory at the same time (i.e. users interacting with the system within a window of a few seconds). It does NOT mean people 'logged in'.* Regards, Arun Venkataswamy http://wondroussky.blogspot.in/ "கற்றது கைமண் அளவு, கல்லாதது உலகளவு" - ஔவையார் Known is a drop, Unknown is an ocean _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
