We run several servers from Windows Server 2003 as well, and we too are getting a lot of lag/choppiness. It appears that CS:S is hogging a lot more resources, and at erratic intervals, since the most recent patch. We were not running the VAC2 Beta on our servers, so I attribute it to that.
Anyhow, our 24 player pubs are the worst hit, and the only way I could keep their resource usage at an acceptable level was to drop our tick rate down to 33 from 66. -Grant. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
