    • data ingress/egress
    • storage (block and DB)

    Do you have any estimations on the relationship between user count and average data transfer rates, and the average rate of storage increase?

      It would depend completely on how many users you let in and what kind of things they’ll be doing. Some users are super heavy with uploading images, some users aren’t.

      I haven’t read the docs in a long time, but perhaps you could restrict image uploading or something. Nothing you can do about unbounded DB growth without expiring content though.
