One engineer at Intel working with the e1000 driver for linux thought it was probably a waste of CPU cycles. He is probably right, the 4.4.19 driver contained improvements for UDP packet handling and it had a very good effect on the daily player count on our servers (not only hl-cs). Having it coded in the server would be much better that using iptables (i.e. the same way as SSH and other programs do). --- marius _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
