How much data can a Roblox server send and receive?

A Roblox server has no limit to how much data it can send or receive globally, but you are prevented from sending more than this limit or receiving more than this limit for any given player. It’s important that you send well below this data limit, otherwise, you will slow down (or even halt!) all replication throughput.

What is the throughput limit for remotes on Roblox?

The throughput limit of remotes is completely dependent on the network speed of the server and client and is highly variable, but, still respects Roblox’s global throughput limit per play. The limit for this data was previously listed in my article and on the devhub as 50 kb/s (50 kilobits/s) for any player.

How much data can Roblox transfer?

Roblox has a soft transfer limit of 50kb/s between a player’s client, that’s 1024 * 50 bytes per second. A Roblox server has no limit to how much data it can send or receive globally, but you are prevented from sending more than this limit or receiving more than this limit for any given player.

What can go wrong if you send too much data?

Here is an example of what can go wrong. Let’s say you send 60kb/s via remotes constantly. Roblox will coalesce many of your requests into one bigger one, which, has the effect of usually allowing Roblox to send data for a few frames before some of your data is sent.

How can you manage your data throughput better?

I would recommend firstly giving yourself a goal limit. I would say 25kb/s is a reasonable hard limit to give yourself. This reserves half of Roblox’s data throughput for yourself and half for Roblox & replication.

Conclusion & Special note on instance based terrain, voxel & entity systems

Terrain and entities are both cases where you expect to potentially be making many thousands of changes. Often times, and in the case of terrain, always, you will find that parenting things after you do the work is surprisingly very fast. For example, let’s say you generate some voxel-style terrain.
