Since at least some of the issues reported in this thread are lock ups, one of my GMod servers is deadlocking in engine.dll frequently (gmod shares the same engine bins). The stack trace looks something like this:
CGameServer::SendClientMessages CParallelProcessor<CGameClient *, CFuncJobItemProcessor<CGameClient *>>::Run CThreadFastMutex::Lock In a second crash dump I believe the game was trying to iterate CFrameSnapshotManager::NextSnapshot but it never broke out of a loop. It suggests to me that something strange is happening in sv_parallel_sendsnapshot or perhaps with snapshots in general. I'm going to run that server with it set to 0 in case anyone is curious and I'll post my results. I have a couple full memory dumps if anyone would like to contact me off-list.
