You see choke because your server is outperforming your client. Choke IS NOT a bad thing. Just adjust your rates to your client only recieves the number of updates it can handle.

Using Redhat 8 - with all up2date crap install - minimal install - no GUI / XWin, etc... I use the P4 1.7ghz - Gen. Intel 256k CPU cache and if no pingboost specified the FPS is around 49-50 - with pingboost 1 - it jumps up to 97-99FPS - but see extreme choke - only 1 hlds process running on this box.... I'm one confused mofo now. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
