Statistics

From openSUSE

(Difference between revisions)

Revision as of 02:35, 30 October 2009

This page contains a variety of statistics about openSUSE's usage. They are generated entirely from the apache logs of download.opensuse.org; you can find user contributed data at smolts.org

In the following tables, a + marks a week not yet complete.

The above table is comparable to how fedora counts its yum data. To see how a product is used towards the end of the life cycle, the per week snapshots are interesting too.

The tables so far are purely based on IPs visiting the download server. As many users use DSL connections with changing IPs, guessing the number of users from the numbers of IPs is basically impossible. So our updaters starting with 11.1 send a random cookie to the server, so the server does not count changing IPs. Based on this data we get more qualified statistics and shoot in direction of number of installations out there.

When downloading patches, the updater will also submit the installation method. This is very important for the openSUSE project to know as to know what installation method needs how much prerelease testing:

Distribution of installation method (Cookies seen)
Flavor	11.1	11.2
dvd	964093 (88,5%)	25984 (67,9%)
ftp	83913 (7,7%)	3760 (9,8%)
dvd-biarch	37155 (3,4%)	21 (0,1%)
promodvd	3300 (0,3%)	11 (0,0%)
livecd-kde	598 (0,1%)	6489 (16,9%)
livecd-gnome	156 (0,0%)	2027 (5,3%)
livecd-kde3	10 (0,0%)	0 (0,0%)
	=1089225	=38292

The gap to the total number of cookies is due to people not downloading patches. Similiarly the usage of the architectures is important for us:

Distribution of architecture
Architecture (11.1)	Cookies seen	Percentage
i586	907986	70,4%
x86_64	378298	29,3%
ppc	3757	0,3%
	=1290041

Other interesting statistics are the places where openSUSE is used most. Based on the cookies and the IP first seen for this cookie and using maxmind's GeoIPCity edition:
