Has pingboost been disabled in the latest release of HLDS? Whether I set it to 1, 2, 3, or not at all there doesn't seem to be a difference any longer. I updated from 3.1.1.0 so retail DoD users could connect. However the only difference I see is far higher latency. This is a 32 player DoD 1.0b server on a Dual Athlon 2gig with 2gig RAM and 18gig 15k rpm drives running Redhat 8.0. I am using the AMD optimized binary. On dod_caen myself and several regular players would ping around 40-50 under 3.1.1.0. Now it is 120-140. That is one heck of a increase. Here is my traceroute and pings to the server. You can clearly see I have low latency to the server. traceroute to 216.127.33.237 (216.127.33.237), 30 hops max, 38 byte packets 1 10.130.192.1 (10.130.192.1) 12.778 ms 10.535 ms 37.825 ms 2 12.244.81.129 (12.244.81.129) 10.250 ms 34.925 ms 9.787 ms 3 12.244.64.1 (12.244.64.1) 13.512 ms 8.814 ms 10.384 ms 4 12.244.72.18 (12.244.72.18) 10.194 ms 52.611 ms 13.045 ms 5 gbr1-p60.st6wa.ip.att.net (12.123.44.114) 11.992 ms 10.886 ms 10.499 ms 6 gbr4-p70.st6wa.ip.att.net (12.122.5.161) 12.664 ms 10.734 ms 10.433 ms 7 ggr1-p370.st6wa.ip.att.net (12.123.44.133) 10.366 ms 15.215 ms 13.012 ms 8 so1-2-3-622M.br2.SEA1.gblx.net (208.51.243.37) 40.380 ms 11.168 ms 12.877 ms 9 pos3-0-2488M.cr2.SEA1.gblx.net (64.213.83.181) 11.031 ms pos3-0-2488M.cr1.SEA1.gblx.net (64.213.83.177) 60.113 ms 13.111 ms 10 so6-0-0-2488M.ar2.SEA1.gblx.net (64.212.107.250) 15.865 ms 9.739 ms so7-0-0-2488M.ar2.SEA1.gblx.net (64.212.107.254) 10.717 ms 11 Swift2.ge-3-2-0.ar2.SEA1.gblx.net (64.215.248.118) 11.195 ms 12.710 ms 45.305 ms 12 66.228.202.18 (66.228.202.18) 11.141 ms 13.635 ms 15.813 ms 13 216.127.33.237 (216.127.33.237) 12.139 ms 12.998 ms 11.753 ms PING 216.127.33.237 (216.127.33.237) from 192.168.1.68 : 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=1 ttl=52 time=12.5 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=2 ttl=52 time=49.4 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=3 ttl=52 time=10.7 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=4 ttl=52 time=14.0 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=5 ttl=52 time=11.2 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=6 ttl=52 time=12.5 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=7 ttl=52 time=12.3 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=8 ttl=52 time=14.3 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=9 ttl=52 time=10.6 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=10 ttl=52 time=13.7 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=11 ttl=52 time=12.0 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=12 ttl=52 time=32.8 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=13 ttl=52 time=10.9 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=14 ttl=52 time=16.4 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=15 ttl=52 time=11.2 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=16 ttl=52 time=10.2 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=17 ttl=52 time=28.6 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=18 ttl=52 time=33.1 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=19 ttl=52 time=13.1 ms 64 bytes from 216.127.33.237: icmp_seq=20 ttl=52 time=11.7 ms Another thing I noticed is that the memory never goes above 256MB where under 3.1.1.0 it would average around 350MB when full. Maybe there is a issue with this. Hope this helps the developers.
