Toot

Written by Roger Light on 2024-10-25 at 08:56

I recently renewed the server running test.mosquitto.org for another year. If you've benefitted from it, or mosquitto and can afford it I'd be grateful for a donation to help pay for it. I don't need a lot - I pay something like $300/year. Current donations are ~$20/year. If you'd like to contribute, there are some links for paypal/github on https://test.mosquitto.org/

@ralight

I'm curious how many messages get sent through that server, and what types. Do you happen to collect stats/aggregates?

@twoolie I don't. There is a wide variety. An Italian computer shop used it for their CCTV pics for a while until I blocked it to preserve their privacy, there are lots of sensors, some games, transit locations from Sweden, iirc and loads more. Too much to reasonable figure out, to be honest.

It does a solid 250Mbps out continuously.

@twoolie This is some data on session lifetime and payload size. The 0 second session being the most common is a pretty disappointing pattern.

@ralight

Someone using it as a public target for CI tests? 0 second session 5 byte "hello" payload?

@ralight

That's an impressive bandwidth stat. Makes sense why it's costing several hundred dollars a year to maintain. I'm keen to go spellunking into the topics now haha.
