Is 64 KB every second doable for Ovarit website bandwidth?

Posted March 25, 2025 by Maplefields in Ovarit

Edit: Or can I go higher? What is the maximum bitrate per ip address you are okay with? (I would like to share the script if it proves to be successful so other volunteers can do other circles.)

I'm setting a loop to download the circle pages info into a raw text file.

Is 64 KB every second ok?

For context, after downloading ~64 KB of raw txt data using curl, my loop sleeps for 1 second before repeating.

I'm working on this project to archive Ovarit's post title history in chronological order.

Format:

(a list for each circle).

[date] [title] [ovarit URL link] [article redirect link] [ovarit archive link]

( details in project link).

This circle is for "meta" discussions about the Ovarit site or community that don't belong on other meta circles such as:

/o/Circles - propose a new circle
/o/Suggestions - suggest new features for the site
/o/Bugs - for reporting bugs in the website
/o/Announcements - where admins announce changes to the site

If you want to discuss thoughts about how Ovarit should be which aren't suggestions for new features (such as significant changes to site functionality that already exists); or suggest changes to or discuss the Sitewide Rules, Guidelines, Mission, etc; or have discussions about Ovarit or the Ovarit community itself; or ask for help on how to use the site, then this is the place.

No introduction posts.

No external data gathering or external polls.

It is not appropriate to air grievances against individual circles, their moderators, their users in aggregate, or specific Ovarit users here. If you want to contest your interactions with circle moderators (including content removals and bans), message the moderators of the circle. If you can't resolve the issue with the moderators themselves, then message the site admins.

Circles on Ovarit are directed by their specific moderation teams. If you have suggestions for a specific circle or circles, bring them up with the appropriate moderators. Topics are only relevant for this circle if they apply to the entire site.

The Sitewide Rules and Sitewide Guidelines are both enforced here.
