    Hi, I just found out that my website is going to be mentioned on G4-TechTV's "Attack of the Show" :eek:

    I really have no idea how large an audience G4 has or how much traffic from the exposure I should expect. I have a 320MB VPS that can handle a pretty good load but I'm a little worried. They will be mentioning my url as well as printing in on the screen for about 10 seconds.

    Any suggestions or ideas of what i can maybe expect? Would adding extra 512 RAM be a good precaution and or tweaking my apache config?

    I guess it'll refuse connections if you have tweaked your apache.

    Default setting for max. users online same time is 150 but you might want to consider it increasing it to 400 or so
