Hi everyone, I actually have to server, one with a P4 rev-c HT 3.0Ghz, one with Bi-Xeon 3.2Ghz. (w EM64T)
http://gentoo-wiki.com/Safe_Cflags#Xeon_w.2FEM64T_.28Intel.29_.28also_Pentium_4_P6xx.29 My xeons are EM64T capable. All my servers are under gentoo, The P4 is under Gentoo i686. The Xeons where tested under both Gentoo i686 and Gentoo x86_64 When running the hlds server with this command on the P4: #cat hlds_startup.sh #/bin/bash cd /home/1hlds/ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/1hlds/ screen -AdmS cs_27015 ./hlds_run -pingboost 3 -game cstrike -autoupdate -port 27015 -heapsize 256000 -secure +ip XXX.YYY.ZZZ.PPP -console +maxplayers 12 +map de_dust2 +servercfgfile server_27015.cfg 1>2 sys_ticrate and kernel hztimer are set to 1000. When connecting with a windows cstrike client, using net_graph 1, i can notice than the green line is perfectly clean, without any pic. On, the Xeons server: using this command line: # cat /home/hlds_startup.sh #!/bin/bash cd /home/x86_64/1hlds/ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/x86_64/1hlds/ screen -AdmS cs_27015 ./hlds_run -binary ./hlds_amd64 -pingboost 3 -game cstrike -autoupdate -port 27015 -nomaster -heapsize 256000 -insecure -console +sv_lan 1 +maxplayers 12 +map de_dust2 +servercfgfile server.cfg 1>2& sys_ticrate and kernel hztimer are set to 1000 too. But here, when looking at the net_graph 1 graphic, the green line is not perfect, this is quite strange, because my p4 server is on the net, and my xeon serveur is on the same lan as my client :s I dont know if the multicore scheduling is in question. Has anyone tried, to use the #schedtool command, to enforce the hlds process to run on a single core ? Here some precisions of my two systems. Gentoo 2006.0 for the P4, and 2006.1 for the xeons. Actually under 2.6.19-rc5 kernel (p4) and 2.6.20 kernel (xeon). gcc 3.4.6 (p4) ans gcc 4.1.1 (xeon) glibc 2.5 for the both systems. The both systems uses qos through the cbq.init script. all sytems areuptodate. I have rebuilt my system twice with #emerge -e system to ensure that all my systems is compiled with the same cflags, and gcc-version. Should i try a 2006.0 gentoo on my bi xeon server? Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
