bbpress 1.0 or 0.9?

    • Posted 2 years ago #

    I want to install bbpress but I am considering server load, so can anyone tell me if 1.0.2 in terms of server load is "heavier" than 0.9?

    Thank you.

    Heavier, yes. Will the average user notice, no.

    It is, by about 50%.
    That said, no version of BBpress is particularly heavy on the processor :)

    Yes, 1.0 has a dramatically higher load.

    I'm running 9 0.9.x bbPress installs along with a WordPress install on a single machine that's doing around 10mm pageviews a month. If I was using the 1.0 branch, I don't think I could come close to that.

    I've tried both 0.9.06 and 1.02 and didn't notice much of a difference. I stuck with 0.9.0.6 simply because there are more plugins available.

    Hey citizenkeith... do you have bbPress benchmark installed?

    I'd be interested in the number of queries/output time for your installs... I've seen a 10x speed difference in test installs and am wondering how common that is!

    John: Here are two active forums, one running 0.9.0.6 and one running 1.02. That latter is integrated with WP. Each install is on a different shared web host.

    Running 0.9.0.6 on Hurricane Electric "Starter Virtual Host"
    0.075 - 12 queries
    0.518 - 16 queries
    0.406 - 16 queries
    0.334 - 15 queries

    Running 1.02 on Media Temple Grid Service
    0.580 - 21 queries
    0.447 - 18 queries
    0.376 - 16 queries
    0.728 - 19 queries
