I know there is already a thread on how the number of concurrent users is calculated in Firebase, but it doesn't answer my question, which is: if a single user has multiple observers to multiple locations in a single Firebase application, does it count as one or several concurrent users?

Multiple observers to multiple location from the same Firebase connection is counted as one concurrent only. Every web page shares a single connection to a given Firebase, but not across iframes or tabs. Every node.js, iOS or Android process will share one connection per Firebase as well.

  • Thanks for your reply. Do you have any source on this? Their doc didn't seem very clear to me on that point, but maybe I missed something – axelcdv Sep 04 '13 at 13:05
