MaNGOS vs ArcEmu in players online

[markg85]

Hey,

Please don't make this a MaNGOS vs ArcEmu spam thread. I don't need your opinion on which one is best for you.

Oke now imagine you have this server:
Vind uw laptop, desktop, server, printer, softwaretoepassing, service of monitor bij Dell.

That with a raid 0 + 5 setting (or another server that can handle 5 drives).

Now if you look at wowscape they have servers with 6000+ people online and that's the example i'm gonna use throughout this post.

WowScape uses Summit (was Ascent and that got forked to ArcEmu). So ArcEmu should (in theorie) be capable of handling about 6000+ (or 8000) players on the server i mentioned.

Now my question is where MaNGOS stands here. Can MaNGOS on the same server get the same number of players online (lets say 6000) or is MaNGOS simply not capable of getting so much players online?

Thanx in favor,
Mark

You're not going to have 6000 online, don't even worry about it.

Summit and Arcemu are so different from each others that you can't assume that arcemu supports 6000 players online when summit does, they have completly different development ways whereas summit goes for maximum number ppl online and long uptimes, arcemu goes for more stuff working.

But for player ammount supported.. I'd think it now goes like Summit -> MaNGOS -> Arcemu

First of all, you need to realize.. Burlex stopped working on ascent awhile back, and him and his dev team have been upgrading summit.. Knowing burlex, he could make summit stableasspash if he wanted to, but he never really has the time.
Summit is god..I heard summit got leaked, so you could do some research on that and get the leaked version =P

All but the last part of Henneke's post is useless.
I didn't ask for a personal opinion or how viable 6000 users are..
Hell i don't even want to start a server! i just posted this here because i'm curious how the arcemu vs mangos status is now.

So again, if you look at the server of my previous post would you think that mangos can be about equal (or better) then arcemu or is that just not the case?

I asked this because a long while ago mangos had about a 2000 players max and took up all system resources if you had more then that.
