I was searching to see if a thread like this already exists, but didn't stumble across one; I'm interested to know what the stats are on on the hardest working hubs in our community. I read once about some users needing to add a second hub into the mix as they had too many devices, and I'm interested in how many is too many. Mine seems to take whatever I can throw at it, but I'd like to know how much success others have had with their setups.
--Zwave: 21 (four power reporting)
--Zigbee: 73 (half dozen power reporting)
--Virtual: 91
--Network integrations: 8 (LIFX, Yamaha, TiVo, Alexa Skill, Echo Speaks, Wink, Ambient Weather; +27 related virtual devices)
164 WebCoRE pistons
75 other apps (Button Controllers, Simple Automation Rules, Maker API, Motion and Mode Lighting, HubWatchdog and a few other Groovy)
Currently on 2.3.4.123, it manages about 4 days uptime; sometimes exceeds 5 days.
Restarts get triggered by virt. switch response time thresholds beyond which I start to notice delays (much better than five years ago when it wasn't nearly as busy, thanks to the progress @gopherny and the rest of the HE team has made).
Patiently waiting for it to die (it's already on its second power supply) so I won't feel guilty about buying a C-8 with my 30 month-old C-7 still waiting in the wings.
I've got 572 devices on my main hub - but that includes a lot of virtual devices, switches, etc. About 70 z-wave, 93 zigbee, 80 or so Hue devices, 41 Lutron switches and picos, 5 Bond devices, 23 Echos, 5 Ecowitt motion sensors. On the app side... 30 room lighting _ mode and motion apps, a dozen notification apps, 83 RM5&4 rules, 12 zone motion controllers, 41 groups and scenes, 10 button controllers.
And then there's the other 2 hubs... but they have more specialized functions. Hub 2 is HSM, Envisalink, another dozen Hue devices, and 41 rules related to security
thanks Ill sure check that out. I have a lot of the Red series switches which I bought to use the LED bars for notifications coming from HSM but it never really worked reliably.
