I don't know if any such limitation exists, but maxing out just shy of 1Gbps
sounds a bit more like an interface's line speed limited/set to 1Gbps
somewhere in your production chain? You wrote that you have tested the bw - what
did you use? Iperf? Speedtest?Maybe consider scaling with additional Icecast
servers and use a load balancer in front? And then just scale accordingly? This
sounds like an interesting challenge. Which radio station is this, if I may
ask?--MariusSendt fra min Galaxy

Emne: [Icecast] Unable to utilize past 1 gbps Dear Icecast,We are operating a
web radio on a 10 Gbps dedicated server line. The line bandwidth?is tested and
available. The web radio is hosted on a Proxmox virtual environment. We own the
physical server itself and made sure to have allocated the sufficient amount of
resources?on the virtual machine.We found that no matter what we do overall
upload cannot go over 1 gbps on 1 mount point.It is not about the maximum number
of listeners as a limiting?factor but the overall bandwidth icecast (we are
using 2.4.4) is able to utilize.?We can let more listeners to connect only by
decreasing the outgoing bitrate that?is?going against quality.We have looked at
icecast web stations globally and what we have found is that NON of them are
exceeding the 1 gbps limit. Like servers having maximum number of listeners
(18000) but using only 48 kbps bitrate?which is around 900 mbps...Please
advice!?Is this really the limit that one icecast server can
utilize/mountpoint?Please link a server that goes over the 1 gbps limit
continuously...Thank you for your help!Best Regards,Zsolt Makkai
