Hi,
I am wanting to put the active users panel (what normally goes on default.asp) into inco_footer.asp so that the panel is available on the bottom of each page.
I have done this and it works fine, but only on my test forum.
But im wondering if when I have 50+ active users, its its going to slow down each page?
Im using MySQL as a database. Will this slow each page loading considerably? or not enough to worry about? |

Having it inc_footer.asp will increase the number of db-calls made on each page. If you have many visitors at the same time, it will increase the resources that each page-load causes. It could cause a slowdown of each page, but you would have to do some performance tests to measure that.
If you aren't afraid, you could add it to your website for a brief period to see if it has any ill effects. |

the thing is I wont have anything to compare it too.
at the moment im using access database, and on some nights my forum gets 200+ active users and the forum becomes inaccessable.
So im setting up a new forum with MySQL with a fresh copy of snitz. So it will be like a new forum and new database so I wont have anything to compare it too.
But I have altered the necessary files just incase I want to use it.
thanks for your help! |

You're welcome, although I didn't do much  .
If you have added it, you could make it available on your forum for a day or two and see if the forum slows down or not. If it slows down so that it is noticeable, you should remove it. Then you know if it is possible or not. |
