ironically enough there is an advert by my name right now offering unlimited hosting with unlimited bandwidth for only £6.95 per month...
that was the size of the previous page in this thread, minus the advertising banners.
you're right pictures do get cached,
I'm sure that there are more than 20 active members as well...
the point is that there is a lot of traffic going in and out of the server.
the page is ~200K
pictures amount to ~100K
the javascript and CSS files take a further ~200K
the page is obviously not cached, javascripts and css wouldn't be cached either
A lot of the files are Cached though... And where are you getting 600KB from? For me, this page is 150KB, EXCLUDING the images.. Are there really 450KB of images? And if there are that many images, then wouldnt they be cached anyway..?
