Back in April, I created few scripts to monitor ntp usage, see: http://www.schlitt.net/scripts/ntp/ I asked people, if they wished, to run these scripts and to post URLs to these stats here on the list. Here is a list of URLs that I can quickly find: http://www.schlitt.net/ntpstats/ntp_stats.txt (6.21 req/sec) http://zoiedog.com/ntpstats (16.04 req/sec) http://ntp.theremailer.net/ntpstats/ntp_stats.txt (8.09 req/sec) http://ntp.vuntz.net/stats/ (10.29 req/sec) http://ntp1.pulsation.fr/ntpstats/ntp_stats.txt (16.59 req/sec) http://ntp2.pulsation.fr/ntpstats/ntp_stats.txt (17.67 req/sec) http://ntp3.pulsation.fr/ntpstats/ntp_stats.txt (10.31 req/sec) http://ntp.kawoo.co.uk/ntpstats/ntp_stats.txt (8.62 req/sec) http://ntp.raggedstaff.net/ntp_stats/ (13.58 req/sec) http://ntp0.netinform.hu/ntpstats/ntp_stats.txt (5.59 req/sec) The req/sec values are from the long term request rate. Also, these rates increasing, for me, it has about doubled in the last 4 months. This rate of growth, about 8x per year, is about the rate of growth that my logs have shown for the last year and a half. So, it is important to not only update the estimated number of packets per second, but also note the date that this estimate was made and warn that the load will double ever 3-6 months. > My servers are also listed on the "public stratum 2 servers" page, so > I'm not sure how much traffic is from there. My server is basically only used for the pool and it is reasonably new (I switch IP addresses in April.) As you can see, it is the second lowest on the list. The rest don't seem out of line for a pool server that has been around for a long time. -wayne _______________________________________________ timekeepers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://fortytwo.ch/mailman/cgi-bin/listinfo/timekeepers
