So how big is the package thus far?

[calorie]

Bits, bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, or lol gigabytes? How big?

 

[Floris]

With language pack included, I can't imagine it being under one megabyte.
But it certainly won't have as many files as vBulletin, so it's not impossible to be <1m

I believe the latest IPB 3 release is around 8 MB or so. If I had to guess, I'd say that XenForo will be quite a bit smaller in size. If it doesn't have a lot of images or language packs, it could be quite small, actually.

If it's true that would be really cool

Browsing through all the files searching for the golden nuggets was like searching a niddle in a heystake

The problem is you can't really take a measure of how big it is now - 3 days before the release they may cut something out or code something in a different way that affects the size of it.

Just wait and see, let it be a mystery....

I have no idea, to be honest. There are all sorts of things that would be stripped out before packaging.

 

[Forsaken]

Its over 9000!... bytes.

 

[Cezz]

Its over 9000!... bytes.

It is over 76000!... bits


But it is ok because there are over 67,108,864 bits in IPB

Forsaken was making a joke ^^ I don't think you got it, so here is a clip:

Your quite right it went over my head... I guess it was a joke just didn't get the reference... Ahh well

Ah, well that's a good indicator that you actually have a life, because the 9,000 joke has been around a few years now.

I don't have a life, obviously.

Congrats on not getting the "joke"... how I wish to be you It's one damn annoying "joke"

 

[Cezz]

I have a very short memory span for things like this... Facts, code etc I remember but other things like, actors names or film/song titles or things like this I tend to forget really easily..

That does mean I am absolutely aweful at telling jokes because I can never remember the punchline, but it also means I can watch the same TVshow/film over and over and its like I am watching it new each time ...

You'd probably only get it if you had a corrupted youth of anime and pointlessness.

Oh, and 4chan, which eats your soul and your humanity.

no, it went very viral. not sure where I heard it, but I don't care for anime or 4chan, so it was definitely not either of them

Well that may be part of the cause... I had a very corrupted youth but it definitely wasn't of Anime or 4Chan...

 

[Chris M]

Lol, over 9,000 Quality old-school joke

 

[Forsaken]

Part of it going viral was due to 4chan.

most likely, I was just saying how you don't need to be part of either community to have heard of the "joke"

Love the constant use of "Joke"... I don't fully see the funny side either, but I understand the reference.
