Senn555 242 February 11, 2012 Share February 11, 2012 Just a question I had on my mind... If I were to go into my notifications and delete all of them (as I do on a regular basis), how much of an impact does that make on server space / processing speed? I mean, theoretically, if every single person on this board were to delete all of their notifications right now, would it make that much of a difference? In the same respect, do private messages work the same way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Rarity Pony 4,892 February 11, 2012 Share February 11, 2012 I think the impact is very small. LRP's opinions are subject to change without notice. Fees and penalties still apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder Twilight Sparkle ✨ 8,527 February 11, 2012 Founder Share February 11, 2012 The notifications table currently contains 107,084 notifications, and clocks in at around 116 MB. Members are limited to storing up to 500 notifications at once, so deleting all of yours would make virtually no difference, neither to disk usage nor performance (once you get more than 500 notifications, the oldest ones will automatically be deleted). Disk space isn't an issue, anyway, as my VPS has over 100 GB of it. Thanks for the concern, but this isn't something you need to worry about. 1 Avatar credit: robinrain8 Signature credit: Kyoshi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
