Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What are the recommended server resources?

As a general rule, if possible, absolutely no shared hosting environments. If you must deploy on a shared enviornment, signup with the hosting package with the most resources available to limit timing out of chat communication due to lack of resource available. The resources needed by the PHP Live! system is directly related to few factors:

Website Traffic - Website traffic plays an important factor in server resource usage. The PHP Live! visitor traffic monitor feature is processed each time a visitor arrives to your website. The process is very fast and takes very little resources. However, if you receive a lot of traffic (10,000+ visitors a day), the resource usage can add up.
Anticipated Live Chat Usage - Each live chat session requires server communication during the chat session. These communications are very fast and takes very little resources. The more chat sessions going on at the same time will require more server resources. A typical modest dedicated server environment with at least 2Gigs of memory should be able to handle 10-50 chat sessions at the same time, or even more.
Operators Online - A typical modest dedicated server environment with at least 2Gigs of memory should be able to handle 10-30 operators online at the same time, or even more.

Q: How much disc space is needed?

The software files (PHP files, images, JavaScript files, sound files, etc) take up around 20Megs. However, the database disc space needed for the PHP Live! system will depend on your website traffic and the PHP Live! usage. Disc space is typically not an issue these days but for a low traffic website (10-1000 visitors a day) at least 10Gigs free disc space is recommended.
