Mibbit is written in C? So you run it at home? How do you pay for the bandwidth?

- axod 18y agoNot quite, Mibbit is in Java. I took "c" to mean "currently unpopular non-hyped language". Much like Java is... Mibbit runs on pretty much a single server at the moment so it's been a similar scaling exercise. I'd definitely agree though with the OP... having limitations forces you to look at better ways to do stuff, and ways to squeeze every last drop out of the hardware/resources.
