How much database space does a typical forum take up? Will 100MB be enough. The forum uses MySQL server.

It does, of course, depend on many factors. I would say 100 MB is a good start, but allow for growth up to 500 MB and possibly more depending on the size of the forum, the kinds of data you store and the efficiency.

i only store text... it seems pretty efficent, but my forum has only 1 post... a test post, time will tell.
