sometimes i see an image not being served when the browser look at www.somesite.com/some_image.jpg -- it will say you need to look at the image from within a page. (such as when using google's image search and looking at some results) so i think their server is using something like # pseudo code if ($referer not contain "mywebsite.co...
I'm looking for a Firefox addon which will track how much bandwidth a page is using. This could be a regular HTML page or GMail with the chat feature using Javascript. Is there anything that will help me optimize my page like this? ...
I have an app that calls my ASP.NET page on my server, every 30 seconds. I want to use this for two purposes: Graph the uptime of my client Graph the average bandwidth from my client to the server What is the best way to calculate the bandwidth (in bytes per second) from the client to the server? I assume that I record the time, ca...
Mason asked about the advantages of a 64-bit processor. Well, an obvious disadvantage is that you have to move more bits around. And given that memory accesses are a serious issue these days[1], moving around twice as much memory for a fair number of operations can't be a good thing. But how bad is the effect of this, really? And what ...
I'm running a Solaris server to serve PHP through Apache. What tools can I use to measure the bandwidth my server is currently using? I use Google analytics to measure traffic, but as far as I know, it ignores file size. I have a rough idea of the average size of the pages I serve, and can do a back-of-the-envelope calculation of my band...
Anyone who knows how to monitor usage of wireless bandwith and number of connections to the router? I know i can restrict usage of router I am interested in seeing usage of current users connected to it. Anyone ? ...
I'm not very experienced with lower level things such as howmany bytes a character is. I tried finding out if one character equals one byte, but without success. I need to set a delimiter used for socket connections between a server and clients. This delimiter has to be as small (in bytes) as possible, to minimize bandwidth. The curren...

These students will access the list of colleges which will be close to 500 & will select 50 college each. After 3 days all selected options wi...
How do I measure the upload and download bandwidth utilization per each process on windows xp/2003/2008 in realtime using C#? ...
I was wondering if anyone knew of a way that you could manage bandwidth within a rails application in some way that isn't dependent on the web server. For example each account has a bandwidth limit. In and out bound traffic subtracts from the monthly allowance? ...
I need to be able to simulate high bandwidth/high latency/high packet loss on my pc for the purpose of testing the software that I'm writing. I've seen some software that you can install on a separate machine that will act as a throttling router/gateway but 1) I didn't really trust the companies that I found 2) A separate machine isn't...
hi friends, If you see the famous FTP Application like Filezilla and Aspera they are intelligently using the bandwidth resources.For example flashget also has an option to download a file at particular bandwidth rate. how actually they are limiting the bandwidth ?. I want to implement a bandwidth limiting in my FTP code. ...
We are planning on serving some video on our website. In order to do so we are doing some contingency planning around the bandwidth we will use up during peak times. We are planning on serving a 1 minute video at 150Kbs (we may increase this depending on how much bandwidth we use up). We are steaming the video, rather than embedding it...
Hey all, I'm currently searching for a way of measuring the amount of downloaded data on my computer while i am connected to the network / the Internet. I'd need a method that would work either for Mac OS X or Windows XP/Vista and can't manage to find anything in the Java API related to that kind of feature. I hope you'll be able to h...
We have been requested to stream a single video (+500MB) from a web site. The biggest additional requirement is that access must be forbidden to foreign IP addresses. Given that high bandwith usage is expected we have turned to Amazon S3 to serve the video as a FLV, but AFAIK Amazon won't let you set up IP filtering based on country l...
I'm developing a file hosting service in ASP.Net where the users will have a certain amount of storage and transfer bandwidth according to the plan they purchased. Considering the fact that I will be using Amazon S3 to store the files, I'm looking for a way to track the amount of bandwitdth used by each file, so that I can associate thi...
In my struggles to make our customer's experience of our web services as good as possible I am creating a webpage where the individual customer can measure their latency and bandwidth to our site. Not really a hard task but I need some feedback on how to efficiently measure client upload bandwidth. Anyone got an exmample/hint on how to...
I may be completely insane on this one, but it seems like the download/buffer rate of YouTube videos is faster at the beginning and the further the buffer point gets from the currently playing mark, the slower buffering goes. Am I crazy, or does it work this way for everyone else? Assuming the latter, any theories on how they do it? Is...
I'm looking for the best approach for selecting the "optimal" network server. Use case: A user at home needs to access a network through any one of the geographically dispersed servers, and we want our desktop app to automatically select one in under a second. The servers block ICMP packets so ping won't work. We're thinking of sending H...
We have a data streaming application which uses local caching to reduce future downloads. The full datasets are larger than what is streamed to the end user - i.e. just the bits the end user wants to see. The concept is pretty much like a browser, except the streamed data is exclusively jpg and png. The usage patterns are sporadic and u...
