Does anyone know what a moderately busy quake server pulls in bandwidth each month?

not alot from what i heard mono, like very little. side note though zero either needs to be rebooted or something, its seems laggy lately. Not as bad as hdz though.
*EDIT* Thanks FOQ for a better answer, in the grand scheme of things thats not much correct?Last edited by rambo; 08-11-2011, 11:52 AM.Rambo[RuM]
I support:
Quakeone.com ..... of Course!

Zero CTF - Thanks mono -
Assuming ticrate .05, I'll guess 15KB/s per player.
On a server with 16 slots, a full server pulls 240KB/s, with that figure in mind.
Assuming this server is full for 4 hours a day, that's about 57MB.
Throwing on a few extra MB for activity outside that 4 hours and adding a bit of an error margin, I guess 80MB a day. That's roughly 2.5GB a month.
The lower the ticrate, the more bandwidth the server uses. Expect the bandwidth to scale up along with lowering the ticrate... and not linearly.e|------------------------0---------------

I think tremor said on his crmod server at ticrate 0.05 with an average of 2 - 8 people at peek times (about 4 hours a night) totals around 130Mbs per month.Comment

Yeah, this month will be a bit low as not many people have played.
When the server first opened up, there were at least 10 people on it from 5:00 central to 12:00 midnight, sometimes up to 16. During those months, with cullentities set at 0, I'd average out at around 110 to 120 GB per month out of the alotted 150.
And yes, that is Gigabytes, not gigabits.Comment
