in the past 330 days, the damus relay has transferred 104 TB of notes
That’s a lot

82 TB of it is GM
GM
82,00000001 now. GM!
Remembering the 90s when standard hosting packages came with 500mb of monthly bandwidth
Things have scaled a lot since then, 32 TB per month on a 4 euro budget provider, these days, 400 TB a year probably has a marginal cost of under $10 https://contabo.com/en/vps/

including media or just plain text notes?
just notes
damus relay only serves notes, we don't host media
Are notes stored on a hardware in your home or cloud storage? Is it doable or easy for a regular person to be a host?
cloud. You can run your own relay if you know how to run servers on your own network
If government ordered a website/ domain / cloud services for the website to be shutdown, would the storage of notes be gone? Could the notes be stored in ssd at home to prevent a loss in that case?
I wonder how much of that is reply guy

That is wild. Congrats. Really nice work.

Very cool. I am trying to focus on wrapping my head around Nostr currently - its ecosystem and potential. The project seems promising and will keep it on my short list as something to try out in the future. Might be a decent platform for converting friends and family over too!
And the zap totals of those notes must be pretty amazing

How much is the current average daily bandwith of a Twitter or Meta relay server nostr:nprofile1qqsgydql3q4ka27d9wnlrmus4tvkrnc8ftc4h8h5fgyln54gl0a7dgspzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqg5waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t0qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyfehcpn? I also wonder if Nostr uses Choke and Kad and which specifications.
How much sats and how many zapped? So that we can clearly show the world that micro-economy works in this circle

would this sort of load wear out a consumer level SSD ?
Probably, though most consumer level drives would still last at least a few years at that rate.
with lmdb/strfry most notes will already be paged into memory, transfers are coming direct from ram.
So the notes bypass the internal drives entirely?
This post is about data transfer, the 100tb is about serving notes already stored on disk that is paged into memory
Ah I see. Curious, what is the total size of a fully synced relay currently? How close to fully synced is an average relay if you have access to that data?
fully synced doesn’t really mean anything. Its not a blockchain. Nodes will never be fully synced with each other. Some nodes are private and disconnected from each other forming subnetworks. If I were to estimate it, i would guess 500GB?
That's seems like so much data, but wonder how much this compares legacy social media.
solid traffic
👏👏👏
If I knew how, I would add dedicated statistics for the relay on http://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de. Since January (I don't have older data at hand), the server sent out 9 PByte of data. 104 TByte would be 1% of that.
Doesn't seem correct the value. To download even 3 PB from a beefy server you'd need a powerful web uplink and that would be running 24/7 at max load.
It's a 20 Gbit uplink running at an average of 4 Gbit. Seems correct to me.
Awesome! Now. BUY BITCOIN - CryptoCloaks
Sadly i managed to wipe the old logs but relay.nostr.net has generated 659gb of traffic in the last 53days. Its tiny compared to damus but its serving its users 24//7. And I don't have tor stats. If anyone is curious about data the latest report can be seen a https://relay.nostr.net/r/report.html nostr:note1gm28csewv0quxtc28a96fsrrvp42dv3uvd62ce4d4zcw78m4gsrs2urjn3

104 terabytes of text notes! 📖 Ever wondered how massive that is? That's roughly equivalent to... 104 trillion characters About 208 million average-sized books Nearly 29.7 million copies of War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy If someone started reading these notes today without any breaks, it would take over 158 millennia to finish! Incredible to think about the sheer volume of information we've moved! 📚 #statistic
When’s your next Damus relay wipe?
