Could plz anyone explain me about the delay function at broadcasting settings? I was wondering how much resources will take in order to stream for example with 300 secs delay at about 2500 kbps/sec. I tried it of course in a stream and i didnt notice any huge difference on cpu or memory ( <--not sure of course) and dint epxerience any problems at all. Does anyone has some info about it?

For anyone curious on the math, it will take up

(# seconds of delay) * (average bit rate in kbps / 8) = amount of memory used in kilobytes.

So a 300 second delay of a 2500kbps stream would result in (300) * (2500 / 8) = 93750 kilobytes ~= 93 Megabytes of RAM.
