Hey all, Just doing some math and capacity planning and I am wondering what others use for numbers for the average usage of a service per user? I am working with NBN-like speeds of 12mb, 25, 50 and 100. Back in the day I used to factor it in at around 30% when we were doing dialup and low-speed DSL... and on ADSL2 I normally factored it at around 15%. But I am wondering what people use for NBN-like speeds. I am thinking that a percentage is probably not a realistic measurement anymore as there is no particular reason a 25, 50 or 100mb user would do more or less on average... they just have the capacity to do more. Does anyone else have any thoughts they are willing to share, or even real observations across a significant number (thousands) of customers that they use for bandwidth (agvc and/or transit) planning? Feel free to off-list if you want to keep the information anonymous... I am happy to publish some findings and a spreadsheet for the use of others. Thanks all. ...Skeeve *Skeeve Stevens - *eintellego Networks Pty Ltd skeeve(a)eintellegonetworks.co.nz ; www.eintellegonetworks.co.nz Phone: +612 8014 7398; Cell +61 (0)414 753 383 ; skype://skeeve facebook.com/eintellegonetworks ; http://twitter.com/networkceoau linkedin.com/in/skeeve twitter.com/theispguy ; blog: www.theispguy.com The Experts Who The Experts Call Juniper - Cisco - Cloud - Consulting - IPv4 Brokering
