[OSM-dev] TileUsagePolicy 'Heavy users' ?
Hi, somebody asked me what heavy user is about. I guess we all would agree that NY Times would be a heavy user, but is there some number say, ~100 concurrent endusers for a webpage that embedds OSM? regards Matthias ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev

No, there is *deliberately* no number, because if we say that X concurrent users is heavy, then someone will run (X-1) concurrent users and claim he's abiding by the rules. I think you can turn it around and say: If your traffic is not noticeable then you are not a heavy user. Look at the munin graphs and make a guess what noticeable means ;) Bye Frederik -- Frederik Ramm ## eMail frede...@remote.org ## N49°00'09 E008°23'33 ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev

Hi Frederik, hehe this is what I expected :) Well my personal oppinion was always that a company offering a product using OSM should be able to setup/rent an own server. The hint to the munin statistics is quite good, I will add it to the page. Thanks! Matthias ___ dev mailing list dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
