Hi!

Hope I am in the right Thread to ask how much network bandwith will be used in 5-10-25-man Raids, or even in Wintergrasp. Using addons like Omen, Visualheal, Pallypower, DBM and some more. Have a feeling that lowest numbers are like 2-5 KB when not in instance, but can be 15-20 in raids, but how high can be the number in WG?

If someone know about the numbers with and without addons, and which ones are causing high network usage.

Thank you in advance,
Kobor

You can figure out that yourself if you are running Vista/7. Open the Task Manager, then start the Resource Monitor. There you have all the interesting info, just look for the network tab and check the traffic the wow task is using.

I want to make 2 remarks that may also take the form of questions.

- There's a possibility threaded optimization on nvidia SLI / core 2 duo systems may improve FPS on 25man fights if disabled on nvidia settings. Can anyone confirm or deny? (The reason I pursued this potential optimization is that it is certain that in Quake3 engines threaded optimization must by disabled in order to avoid severe FPS drops.)

- Running /reloadui before each fight may improve the probability of .exe crashes or disconnects. I suspect it may be related to memory leaks, possibly related to addons (even if they may not appear oversized on an in-game memory listing). Can anyone confirm or deny?
