So how come ubuntu.com always dies and forums still work?

It's because when traffic gets heavy, one of the moderators jumps on a stationery bike and starts pedaling, and that's hooked up to the Internets, and that keeps our system going even when the bigger sites fail. Cool, huh?

To give you a decent answer.

- Lots of people going to ubuntuforums.org and posting and reading text.
- Lots of people going to ubuntu.com and donloading ~700mb iso or Torrents.

Which of those two will create congestion on their respective internet access?

Hmm i think the download mirrors are different from the main website arent they?

They just link you to that page or torrent.

Or maybe iam wrong.
