We deal with a lot of text on CodeProject and it can be a major PITA. Beyond that we also deal with general HTML related issues such as parsing content and dealing with URLs.
@florianrappl descended from the Mount and gave us AngleSharp[^] and for that I owe him a beer. The best HTML/CSS parsing and, frankly, the best URL parser I've yet seen.

Just how big is your DB now?
It must be a nightmare just to manage the backups...
My apologies - I replied to the wrong post... 
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

They're a bunch of useless data tapes and never used servers sitting in racks that IT Dorks will waste money on if they're not kept on a tight by the Godly Bean Counters<Insert halo and angelic chorus sound effects here>.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Depends which one, but all up no more than 2TB data.
Most of that is made up of bad puns.

Ah. I didn't realise I posted that much...
Given the activity level of the site, that's less than I thought. Still a lot of data to manage - means there's some good software processing it given the site's general response times.

If you just look at user content - forum posts, QA posts/comments, article text, article images/zips, which individual member takes up most space in your database?

That's be like answering the question "am I fat?". I'm not going to publicly shame the person.

I think it'll be a matter of pride. In the same league as "who can burp loudest"

AngleSharp is Awesome. Period. No other library can even come close.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Thanks @ChrisMaunder! Glad that AngleSharp helps you solving some problems more efficiently.

YUP. The minute you start explaining something to other people, you start seeing better ways to do it.

Yep, and that's after you found all the bugs and better ways of doing things!

Or, in my case, that awkward silence that allows you to realise that you may in fact have gone too far down the rabbit hole...

ah that wonderful sick feeling in the pit of the stomach.

I'm prepping a talk on distributed event stream processing so I did a trial run with my wife and a dog we were looking after - I have a feeling that their reaction will be fairly typical of what the target audience will have...

In Germany, they compare apples with pears. Probably even closer than oranges.
