>Completely OS dependant.
that so , hot-shot mr.circle mud boi? first of all COMPLETELY is not a word
i would use. say for example some coder freak decides, "Hey! lets give all
those poor 386 and 486 pc owners a chance to run their own circlemud by
porting it to windows 3.x"... now say that mud is up and running...
.although windows 3.x would probably crash lots more than a system running
circlemud on windows 95 would (due to the way win 3.x manages system
resources, and sometimes leaks memory, cuasing the entire computer to crash
within a day, and including its instability for tcp/ip), i dont think the
bandwith is reliant on the OS.... theoretically, both would be able to
handle 8 connections without lag, but the win 3.x machine would crash after
a short period of time. my point is that it is the hardware that determines
bandwith, and although one can tweak with system settings to optimize
performance by a small amount, it is not what controls how many connections
a piece of hardware can maintain,
