We've hosted 2 TF2 instances on 2 different Windows 2003 boxes with virtually identical performance envelopes:
+ P4 3.0GHz + 2GB RAM + 3 other SRCDS instances on same physical machine (DoD, Insmod, CS, etc.) Tickrate 66, fps_max 300 Idle server fps = about 256 Full load 24 ppl = >= 140 fps I have a TF2 instance with gameservers.com: Linux w/ kernel = 1000 Hz Tickrate 66, fps_max 300 Idle server fps = about 160 2 player load = <40 fps We haven't tried a full load yet, but I doubt it's playable. All other netcode settings are virtually identical. Network connectivity is not an issue. I can't get the full story from Gameservers.com's tech support, so I'm only able to make some educated guesses. Either they have something funky set with affinity or some other resource allocation or the Linux SRCDS binary has a serious flaw. If you're noticing extreme CPU utilization that could explain the problem I'm seeing. Normal server slot load would probably not work if the CPU use is skewed.
