I understand that but if you start using pingboost and fiddling with sys_ticrate and hz then try comparing CPU usage back to Windows HLDS then it's comparing apples with oranges. We need to try and get the "unmodified" Linux HLDS running at decent CPU levels before worrying about tuning it. Anything you do to reduce pings is going to increase CPU usage. -Simon _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
