Hacker News Reader

I'm hoping open sourcing these stats from yesterday's article will help someone out there. I've learned a ton from reading HN so here's something back.

Thanks for this. I'd always been curious what sort of traffic one could expect to get from sites like Reddit and Hacker News. Actual numbers are so rarely published.

Mind me asking what size Linode you are running EE on?

I have an EE install on Linode with nginx and MySQL, so I was wondering what I could expect?

Looks like I have the Linode 512 plan, so far so good :)

I've got a small blog network running on a 512 also -- Wordpress with supercache installed. During the Queensland floods one of the blogs got 50k visits in a day ... and I didn't notice.

Caching. Rules.
