Youtube and server load.
when i was running phpbb i embedded you tube vids in post as you do here on mybb source i ran into an issue with my hosts where the vids were using way too much resources on the server. They actually moved me to a test server for a week. since then i have not allowed embedding on my pages.
i switched to mybb a couple of months ago do you guys reckon ill run into a similar issue if i allow embedding again ?

RE: Youtube and server load.
I haven't had a problem with it. Do you allow guests and such to post TONS of videos? Or is it just every once in a while a video is posted?

RE: Youtube and server load.
I think thats a problem with your host. Bad configuration of servers.
It'll be OK.

RE: Youtube and server load.
I'd suggest purchasing more bandwidth if necessary. Or allow only 1 - 2 video embeds per post. I never had such a problem however.

RE: Youtube and server load.
I didn't have any problems either. I used to embed loads of video's each day. It is probably a host issue.

You can't request the db backup?

RE: Youtube and server load.
well it happened awhile ago ... it was nothing important i dont like people messing with my db + the admin who was in touch with me seemed like a clutz...so i didnt want him to try to patch the dbs. im 90% sure tho that it wasnt the youtube vids ... i made about 5 backups of the dB + root folder one after the other and im sure that caused the spike. It couldve been phpbb too idk ...
