Thx... I have test it, and my fps are changing between 200 and 30...
Unfortunatly the pings are higher than in 'normal' mode.... with udpsoft too... The CPU (2.8GHz P4) increases the Usage only to 10% on pingboost 3...(normally 5 %) So, i will go back to the non-boost mode.... Maybe the linux-version is the reason for the poor Pings, because On my oldest server (Celeron700) the pings are 50% better..... :) very confusing.... regards LuZi -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Im Auftrag von Gavin Rodgers Gesendet: Sonntag, 22.

This info i found on http://server.counter-strike.net/forums/ All the pingboot modes attempt to reduce the latency caused by the server. The default implementation adds around 20msec to each players ping (underlinux). Mode "1" reduces this by using a different wait method (a select() call). This method reduces the latency to 10msec. Mode "2" uses a similar but slightly different method (and alarm() type call). Again, the result it 10msec worth of latency being added. NOTE that this method has the potential to hang a server in certain (terminal) situations. If anyone has used this mode recently (not the first test we did!) and it hangs please speak up :) Mode "3" minimises the latency to the minimum possible level by processing a frame EVERY time a packet arrives. This causes the lowest possible latency, but can also cause extreme CPU usages (it does a complete frame for every packet, with each player sending lots of packets per second and 30 players this adds up to insane amounts of frames). Use this mode at your own risk, it will consume all available CPU, don't complain that cstrike uses too muc h CPU if you use this mode :-) In a future release this mode will be tweaked to let the admin balance latencies agains CPU usage (by processing a frame every N packets).
