I hate my current host. Plan on switching. I have a game on my site. I'm afraid it will cause problems on Bluehost.

Could I get some people to sign up for the game and see what they think about the CPU/PHP usage. IE, will this game be a problem on Bluehost with a few hundred people playing it?

visited the site... might need some clerification on following stat.


ID# Player Skill Points Gold Offense Dead?
23 PeTjA 2100700 40 101
13 ArchChef 457163 85733 168
10 JerryHigh 222915 20057 450

seem like a very high stat of "2100700" points.

basically, you can use up to 20% cpu usage on a time.
and as long the script is not over processing (which i think will be just some simple mathematic calculation)... also some sql updating thing.

probably having few hundred active player a given time, will rise the cpu to the limits.

in future, if there is a need, you can upgrade to higher cpu usage server, which cost almost $20...instead of $6.95
