How much bandwidth ?

[webmaster208]

Seems like the sitemap generator is consuming more than 150 megs of bandwidth on a single pass. How is that possible for a really small forum with about 700 posts? Maybe I don't understand what its doing but here are the numbers:

Request date:
2 May 2009, 04:26
Processing time:
417.70s
Pages indexed:
2529
Sitemap files:
1
Pages size:
146.08Mb
Download:
XML sitemap
In text format
In ROR format
HTML sitemap

Any insight into this greatly appreciated... TIA

Hello,

146Mb per 2,529 pages gives around 57Kb per page, which is quite usual for the average forum page.
