You should repost this question in the hlds_linux mailinglist, I've found at
my expenses that srcds has very different performances on linux and windows.

BTW, on a Xeon 3520 (server version of i7 920 @ 2.66Ghz), a 32 slots TF2
server saturates one core on linux (with fps drops), while uses up to one
core and a half on windows (with no fps drops).
