 * Hello,
 * Is it possible to have an estimate of the resources needed for a conference of
   1000 people?
 * I have a dedicated server but I have no idea if it will be able to handle the
   load.
 * Thank you very much.

 * Hi, thanks for your message.
 * It’s difficult to say exactly because dedicated servers vary so much in their
   specification and the load on the server depends on what much interaction those
   attendees have, for example if they are asking a lot of questions then it will
   add quite a bit of overhead. Attendees also ‘ping’ the server every minute to
   make sure that nobody else has logged in with the same email address as a security
   measure.
 * With WebinarPress Pro you can activate ‘WebinarPress Connect’ which adds real-
   time websockets to take a lot of the load off your servers and we have customers
   hosting webinars with 800+ attendees without too much trouble but 1000 would 
   really be the upper limit for the user interface.
 * If you’d like to discuss in more detail please send us a message at [hello@getwebinarpress.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/server-performance-2/hello@getwebinarpress.com?output_format=md)
   and we’ll be happy to help 🙂
