Hehe ta Steve, I do apologise to others I can get a bit tetchy at times as I have done to you in the past :) (I certainly appreciate 100% any information provided even if seems misleading as helps build a clearer picture), but 0% full 24 slot servers gets a bit silly under anyones comprehension as far as I'm concerned (apart from starting/idle games/maps with people on).
Btw I just want to confirm I don't necessarily disagree with what people "see" in terms of graphs etc (i.e I'm not calling anyone a lier from their info..I've seen it on different Linux kernels etc to know how things can "appear" different), just in terms of what seems "reasonable". 24 slot action (sounds like a porn movie) at 0% just doesn't make any logical sense or you would be running hundreds of them, even though I've seen similar myself. Run a certain amount and you will get complaints. You "know" its not right in what its representing, so "why" do people believe it, yet "don't" run that many? Simply put, comes a point of what something says, and what you get play wise doesn't add up. It's up to you what it is. Btw I'm not having a go at Team Pfeffer, its actually at least good to see someone comment on their fps values etc which I think is good information and more than many (I run some at 50, some at 500 for what its worth, and have said get more complaints on 500 than 50 so I agree on the stability side...just I don't think thats "all" by any means, but if I was an expert I would offer more advice). More information is good, and sorry if it felt like I was having a go or anything, just I don't believe the report as opposed to you if that makes sense?
