we have ejabberD server at work, we just wrote an applet for it, and now I need to find out the capacity of the server to hold a large no. of accounts (above all capacity to retrieve accts if there is a large no. of accts in it);
jabber servers only allow one session per user, but we need to allow one user to be connected to more than one MUC at a time, so what we want to do is add some nos. or sthg to username (i.e., create a new acct for user) when user loggs in again in a diff browser window while they’‘re already logged in (right now if they do this they get disconnected from 1st session); but in this way a large no. of accounts would accumulate in server fast; I’'m trying to find out if anybody knows if server will slow down (I mean acct retrieval) if there is a large no. of accounts in server (in db, I guess it is…) and more or less what limit is… (b/c in that case we would need to delete accts more than, say, two weeks old or something…)
thank you…
