Alan, According to, for example, <http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/rtstats_summary_volume?uni1.unidata.ucar.edu>,the maximum hourly rate of NEXRAD-II data is approximately 1.2 gigabytes of data in about 11,000 products. Therefore, to retain at least one hour's worth of data, I recommend a product-queue of about 1.4 gigabytes with about 12,000 slots. This assumes that this snapshot of maximum data rate is typical.

What sort of product queue size and number of slots would work best for the NEXRAD Level II feed, assuming that is the only data being passed on a given instance?I wonder what the Top Tier sites have set? Alan.
