Exactly !! 4 to 5 times their normal ping, and it can surge higher at times also.
Thank you for the reply, it is always comforting to know you are not alone with a new problem, especially one as odd as this one! I kept dropping my player counts, but it did not help, and the server CPU usage was tiny, however the server acted as if it had completely run out of CPU. If anyone hears anything about this, or if Valve comments on this, please post here. Does Valve read our problems from this List, or is there some better Forum/list to make Valve aware of Dedicated Server Problems??
