  • Make America Great Again. Deport some DUmmies.
As of today, 11/11/16

Since November 1st, 2016, The Cave has seen ;
  • 5,923 Unique Visitors
  • 15,704 Visits total
  • 2,427,327 Pageviews by Humans
  • 2,898,900 Page Hits by Humans
  • Consuming 12.29 GB in Bandwidth (Humans)
  • 458,762 Pageviews by bots
  • 482,501 Page Hits by bots
  • Consuming 3.81 GB in Bandwidth (Bots)

To explain some things -
A pageview is getting presented a complete page with text graphics, etc. a page hit includes partial elements - Like linking a picture hosted on The Cave someplace else, an error page, etc etc.

Now considering that The Cave is mostly text - what graphics are hosted here are essentially page elements, emoticons, and avatars - most of the other photos , YouTube videos etc are hosted at other locations and are not counted in the bandwidth beyond the text in the post(s) that link them. The Cave also compresses everything that goes out, making the user's browser decompress and display the data, as it reduces the bandwidth consumed here. Text compresses down to almost nothing.

So, when one considers we are now pushing better than a GB of data a day between bots and humans, we are doing pretty well for such a 'small' site.  :cheersmate:

H-5 for keeping it up with all the extra traffic.  Are DUmmies considered Bots?

Hello to the Baizuo lurkers from DU, DI, JPR and Huffpo

DUmmies can no more understand the "Cave" than a rat can understand a thunderbolt, but they fear it just the same. Fear the "Cave", DUmmies. Fear it well. Big Dog 12-Jan-2015
