Maximum send chat

[kingter-sutjiadi]

Hi firstly i want to thank for this awesome open source project, anyway i want to ask can i modify the maximum send chat size on the server, i'm planning to use json format when sending message, i already forked this project and test some changes but when my custom client tried to send chat more than 433 the other client can't see the rest of the message it was trimmed,
Thank you

You can increase <limits:maxline> (default: 512) to increase the line length if you're only using custom clients. Please note that this will break normal IRC clients though.

You might also find it easier to use the IRCv3 client-to-client tags and TAGMSG to send data between clients as the client-to-client tag space is 4x larger than what you can use for regular messages. For this you need the cap and ircv3_ctctags modules. See the IRCv3 message tags specification for more information on how to use this.

if you mind i wanted to ask something else about hardware requirements, i'm planning to have concurrent approximately around 10k - 20k
i'm planning on doing horizontal scaling and around 3/ 4 instances what's the recommendation hardware spec for running the inspircd?

and normally how many concurrent connection for single instances to handle?

Thank you

I've seen InspIRCd networks easily scale up to 100k users on a single server but you should probably have multiple servers running for redundancy in case one goes down.

ok cool thank you, may i know what's the server spesification ? will it enough with 2 CPU and 4 GB ram? or it need more that this?

[SadieCat]

I don't remember but that's probably enough.
