RE: HLDS with MP support?

[Stan Hoeppner]

First, please don't send HTML email to this list..or any other list server for that matter.   HLDS will run on multiprocessor systems.  HLDS is not threaded, and has no child processes.  It is a single monolithic application.  A single process.   The only way to take advantage of an SMP machine with HLDS is to run multiple HLDS servers on it.   Valve does not intend to rewrite HLDS to support SMP.  Future Valve game server may, but I don't know what Valve's specific goals are.   Again, HLDS will only take advantage of SMP if you run multiple HLDS servers on an SMP machine.  A single HLDS server will see no performance improvement on a multiprocessor over a single processor.   StanTheMan TheHardwareFreak www.hardwarefreak.devastation.cc [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: Magnetro Chen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, September 30, 2001 8:30 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: HLDS with MP support? I have seen someone talking about hlds with multi-processors, And someone at valve has said that hlds will support multi-processors. But I didn't C anything about this, and now hlds still without MP support. Does the HLDS on MP project have been cancelled?
