Do we have any metrics on the number of visits we get on the pharo.org website, which parts are the most visited, etc?
Yes, we have Google Analytics installed⦠but I did not look at it for a long time. It is no that spectacular⦠200-300 users per day. But there is not much reason to visit it often, so a large part of that are real new visitors.
The same regarding web downloads, and so on. I understand that CI can distort download count if using only access logs, but certainly if we count a download through the webpage as a "conversion" (and track it somehow) we would have a better idea how big this is becoming.
The new files.pharo.org <http://files.pharo.org/> keeps logs for one day⦠So for today: 17.98 GB transfer until now (not even half day), so around 25 to 30GB per day. But CI is really a lot⦠it is not only the CI of Pharo itself, but others, too. E.g. just the ZWEIDENKER Jenkins builds quite often⦠Tracking the real downloads would be a better way, yes. What I would like to have is a way to count âcurrently running imagesâ. But I guess adding that by default (like all mobile apps now do) would not be wanted.. but one could add some config option. I want that for the Zweidenker pharo images: right now it is easy to count by counting the processes on the virtual beta-swarm and doubling (for production). But soon production will scale up and beta down *and* there will be a alpha swarmâ¦
But back to your point and as a bystander these days, it is very hard to be aware of everything that's going on in the Pharo world, and not because of the associated noise, because there is actually a lot of things going on. :)
It is interesting! Marcus
