-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] yes, with pingbooster OFF it's around 60 FPS when there are less than 20 players. with pingbooster ON, it's around 250 FPS when there are less than 20 players.
command line: -console -game dod +ip xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -port 27015 +map dod_anzio +maxplayers 24 -tickrate 66 don't worry, i intentionally X'd out the IP. the real command line has numbers ;) server.cfg: sv_maxrate "20000" sv_minrate "2000" sv_maxupdaterate "66" sv_minupdaterate "10" decalfrequency "10" fps_max "300" i haven't trimmed down anything really. the server is basically running a default install of Windows 2000 up to date with the latest Microsoft patches. i am running a control panel service (to start/stop the server from a browser), but even if i disable that and run the server by itself i get the same crappy FPS results. right now i'm running two SRCDS and there are currently 27 players spread across both of them. the CPU load is chilling at a low 7%. FPS is jumping between 30 and 60 (sometimes even 20) depending on the amount of action taking place. so it doesn't seem like it matters if it's multiple servers or just one; when a certain amount of player slots are filled, the FPS drops like mad. any other ideas?
