You can tell when you run that thing, both the NodeBB platform and CloudFlare really show the traffic shape change. One big thing is because it harvests old thread it hits content that is not cached. So the cache hit ratio just takes a beating.

@dbeato I've got a cool script that tells you which threads on ML are popular. Kind of heavy, and only so useful alone, but it is trivial to modify it to track scripts that you care about. I'll make a post for it.
That would be cool to see.

Why back it up that way vs the server or files and DB?

Because I don't have access to them at least on those two examples.

Oh, why are you supposed to back up ML without having access to the back-end?
And, how would you restore anything with those backups?

I am not, I was just downloading an offline version. It was a test. ML is pretty big and other forums are big so not a backup.

Its an emergency procedure for someone who worries that something might happen to the community and disappear. You could programtically reconstruct the community if you had to.
DB access is way better. Obviously.

RE: Restore
It builds a static version of the site that you could host.

So - is someone considering doing that in case another site fails? I wonder how much storage is needed?

For example ML took about 24 GB of two days downloading, I stopped it because I didn't need it.

13.5GB on ML so far.

ML has very little "media" on the site. So that doesn't expand very quickly.

Is there a way to do a dry run just too see how much storage will be consumed without actually downloading?

No that I know of.
