RE: [hlds_linux] New Update, New issues
Are you running tickrate 100 and do you see it decreasing as you start up more gameservers? like the first gameserver seems to run fin with tick100, but when more gameservers are started to tickrate, for them alle, starts to lower more and more, so that when you have 5 gameservers running a tickrate 100 server is at a mere 93-96... and the gameservers are idle and load is low. Regards, Thomas H. / www.DSRack.dk Hello Alfred (and the rest of you), Since the last 2 updates we noticed a decrease in performance on Centos 4 and 5 machines with the newest updates and GLIBC. Running modified 2.6.22-rc3 Kernels, The server side FPS goes to 10 and go back up. Has anyone experienced this? We also have been experiencing increased choke as well. No idea whats causing this because the boxes are at minumum load. Any suggestions or idea? We are talking Dual Intel Woodcrests and Clover town CPU's With 4GB to 6GB of RAM. Much help would be great.

Re: [hlds_linux] lags at round end/start *and* during a round
Also seeing that here on our 32 slot linux server. No response from valve at the min as to what is causing this, but you are not alone :) I have to say though, we don't see lag during gameplay, this maybe as we have been fairly strict on users rate settings recently. hi phil, the lag seems to have an un-linear increase with increasing number of players. with up to 30 players it looks ok during gameplay, with only some players lagging. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

you're not alone with this problem. this is probably the most discussed topic for the last 2 weeks. but valve seems to ignore this problem, we didn't even get an acknowledgement. a lot of larger game servers i've checked in the last days, have the same problems. the lag increases with number of users on the server. on a 16 slot server, this effect might be ok for most of the public players. maybe they're working on this problem, maybe not. or maybe they don't know how to solve this problem we don't know really :( hopefully we will know in the next days :) maybe i'm already ignored by alfred for bugging him? but it can't be too hard to say we're working on it to calm down the situation, is it? yes, indeed. a small note would be nice doesn't take more that 10 seconds. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
Re: [hlds_linux] Source Engine Update - cpu-usage
There is also another thing that should be checked. Before when server was started, it ate somewhat 7,5% of 1024MB memory, now 10,1% on start.

Re: [hlds_linux] lags at round end/start *and* during a round
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Hi, I am also experiencing this end-round lag on my server. Sometimes during a round, but usually when the round ends, it takes around 10-15 seconds for the round to reset (with the CONNECTON PROBLEM message at the top-right corner). The strange thing is that when this happens, about 90% of the players are affected, and some are not! Those few lucky players are then already half-way around the map before the others can start buying. This problem seems to appear when there are more than approx. 16-18 players online on the server. I am running a CSS server with 22 slots and the latest build on a linux box. Hopefully Valve will notice us struggling with this problem and do something about it.

Hello, Yes they are running at 100 tick, and I've not have had any problems before. The smoothness Counter-strike Source had on the linux server is gone.
