Yep,yep Reducing number of players or changing timer values didn't help a bit. I started to measure performance counters and there seems to be soft faults rising (memory / transition faults) same speed as lag is happening. So there seems to be memory leak or some other memory related problem with hlds-process. I installed memory manager software and managed almost get the hole lagging problem away. Still there is very little problems, which disappears after process reboot. I understand that DoD is not number one in interest list of Valve and source is coming, but still maybe some advices or explanations related this problem from Valve would be nice ...
