## Disclaimer
It has been observed that having a lot of bots, or players for that matter, will put a strain on harddrives; even with a fairly low amount of bots or players. MySQL will continuously read and write to the disk and the amount quickly adds up. If you are concerned about the lifespan of your harddrive it's recommend to use as few bots as possible or limit yourself to only using altbots to minimize the amount of writes.
- With just 500 bots, a sustained write speed between 1MB and 10MB/s has been observed. There have also been occasional jumps upwards of 30MB/s.
- With thousands of bots it's not uncommon to see a sustained write speed of 30MB/s or more. That equals about 74 **terabytes** over 30 days.
## Bot activity profiles and performance
Before going into the configuration options we need explain the logic abit. Every update tick of the server its calculated whether a bot can
or can't be active. An active bots takes and eats alot more resources then an idle bot.
