Mr. Sumichrast speaks the truth.
Virtualization itself doesn't cause problems, as virtualizing actually
works quite well when done correctly nowadays. However, overcommitted
machines, slow hardware, and poorly configured software setups can cause
issues, just as they can for regular game
Thanks for the hwinfo output Ryan, that confirms what I thought and your lag
issues are likely the result of a weak CPU. Source (Especially on Linux) is
VERY poorly optimized, it will eat CPU's like candy.

determined that it was an issue with disk I/O and within 1 hour I was up and
running on a different host with less overall disk I/O.

Hi guys,
Just set up a new Linode 1024 plan to use as a TF2 server. Installed srcds
in Ubuntu 11.04 server, and it works, but there's some serious lag issues
that are causing players to complain and leave the server.
I set the server up following the directions outlined here:
Sounds like a VM, if so that's your problem.

Yes - being virtualized shouldn't be an issue (in my eyes). Linode VPSes are
quite powerful and srcds should be smooth as butter. I've found disabling
replay reduces the lag issue somewhat but it's still there.

I run three 24 slot tf2 servers on ESXi without any performance issues

addition to those I have run killing floor and left4dead(2) servers all
simultaneously.
