in reply to Public export of Perl Monks database

Nice idea, zby++. Does someone know the rough size of such backup?

Ciao, Valerio

update: using data provided by jeffa, I did the following guess: given that tilly's nodes are ~1035 bytes, ~238000 nodes will be ~235Mb (uncompressed).

    I don't, but for what it is worth, i grabbed all of tilly's nodes a while after he announced his departure. His 2994 writeups total up to about 13 megabytes and he is only number three over at Monks by Writeup Count ...

    UPDATE:
    valdez tells me that the total megs on tilly's posts is only about 3. I ran du -h originally, but after thinking about this, 3 megs sounds more correct than 13. Thanks valdez. :)

    My guess is that it would fit on a single regular CD.
