I'm running tests on randomly generated IDs and recording the analytics of that asset, but I decided to do the assets in order. Looking at the times that these assets were created, I'm baffled at the scale of it. About every 20 milliseconds, a unique asset is created. That's ~50 unique assets every second. And that's also data that ROBLOX has to store. Lets just assume that the 50 unique assets per second is a constant. That'd mean that 4,320,000 UNIQUE assets are created every day (from the current calculations), data that ROBLOX has to store.
If you ever think that ROBLOX is greedy, keep in mind that they have to pay for web servers to store every single asset on this website. Each asset might not be big, but 4.3 MILLION assets per day would certainly add up. If everyday users didn't buy BC and fund ROBLOX, we wouldn't have ROBLOX right now. |
