I got an email from ORCSWEB, my most excellent hosting company (check them out) that I'd used over 230 GIGs of bandwidth for the month. Oy. First, I was happy that the site is doing well, then I was disturbed. Something MUST be wrong.
我收到了来自ORCSWEB的电子邮件, ORCSWEB是我最出色的托管公司(请查看它们),本月我使用了超过230 GIG的带宽。 哦首先,我很高兴网站运行良好,然后我感到不安。 一定有问题。
So, I asked them to hook me up with a better stats package than the default and they hooked up SmarterStats immediately. I checked it out:
因此,我要求他们为我提供比默认更好的统计信息包,然后他们立即与SmarterStats进行了联系。 我检查了一下:
Notice anything odd there? Yes, my favicon.ico used 27 GIGS of bandwidth in the month. Yikes.
注意到那里有什么奇怪的东西吗? 是的,我的favicon.ico这个月使用了27 GIGS带宽。 kes。
Turns out my icon was 70k, as I made it a wonderful high-quality "Vista" icon in an attempt to make things pleasant and everything for folks. Of course, I didn't noticed when it was taking up over 11% of my monthly bandwidth.
原来我的图标是70k,因为我将其制作为精美的高品质“ Vista”图标,以使事情变得愉快,并为人们提供一切。 当然,我没有注意到它何时占用了我每月带宽的11%以上。
Long story short, I changed my icon from a multi-resolution (6 resolutions, all 16M colors) to a simpler one using Junior Icon Editor that has 3 resolutions at 16 colors and still looks nice. The icon is now under 4k, a 95% reduction that should lower this month's bandwidth by 25 GIGS.
长话短说,我使用Junior Icon Editor将图标从多分辨率(6种分辨率,所有1600万种颜色)更改为一种更简单的图标,该图标具有3种分辨率,16种颜色并且看上去仍然不错。 该图标现在位于4k以下,减少了95%,应该会将本月的带宽降低25 GIGS 。
