Hanz,

You might want to consider hosting the main site on one service, and all the .PDF files somewhere else.

We also might want to consider making the .PDF files password activated or some other way to prevent spiders from crawling the site to pick up all those attachments.

How much space does the eSIF take up with and without the .PDF files?

: I just ran the stats.  Prior to the NBCi main site going down, the amount of
data flowing out of the eSIF mirror on taiga.ca was 36.7 MBytes/day.  Upon the
collapse of the NBCi site (approx. April 1st), the taiga mirror's traffic
increased to 211.1 MBytes/day.

Aaaaaaaaaargh. This is exactly what I was afraid of.

: If Hans can tell me the exact time NBCi went off-line, I could tell you
exactly how much the traffic increased.

I noticed it on te morning (CET) of April 2nd...

: But for now, and
: on average, someone's trying to replicate the site every day-and-a-half.

If this "someone" is on the list, please stop! If it continues I'll just have to
remove all the .pdf manuals. If he was afraid that the eSIF might be closed in
the future, he has been creating a self-fulfilling prophesy ...
