My server is running at tick rate 33, no max rate or min rate, and has 64
player slots.  It runs Debian Linux, on a P4 3.6GHz with 1GB of RAM - it
doesn't run *anything* other than srcds (and sshd, obviously).

Since the update, I have observed almost *twice* the bandwidth being
received in clients (using net_graph 3, rate 20000, cmdupdate 30). It's
usually around 4-6k/s on office (with 40 players), but now it's between
4-16k/s!

Various players are complaining of extra choke, but I believe these are
people with low to medium spec processors (like me, P4 2.4GHz or
equivalent).  It makes the game unplayable, and difficult to walk even in a
straight line...

I have also observed the same behaviour offline, running a listen server on
Windows XP.  There are occasional "blips" in movement, with a ping of zero
(and yes, all other Windows programs were closed).

What is going on?  Disabling Mani and ETB makes no difference.  Is it all
VAC2 related?  This wasn't happening with -vacbeta...
