All clean servers, no modifications.

HLDS:
sv_maxrate 25000
sv_minrate 0
sv_maxupdaterate 100
sv_minupdaterate 20
sys_ticrate 1000

SRCDS:
sv_maxrate 25000
sv_minrate 0
sv_maxupdaterate 100
sv_minupdaterate 20
fps_max 1000

I observed differently patterned FPS drop happens on both Linux and
FreeBSD, confirmed which pushes it down to 50-70 FPS from the areas of
333-500 FPS . This occurs every few minutes. As the other FPS drops
occur during in-game  fire. So they are in fact two seperate things,
disabling VAC2 doesn't change anything. And as I said, the FPS drop in
Source is horribly severe (500 FPS all the way down to 50). The
framerates are usually extended to a constant 500, SRCDS and HLDS, all
of these issues appeared since the release of VAC2. Locking it down in
Linux with the kernel hz, which it usually locks to quite well, does
not solve the actual problems with registry, tested on Fedora Core,
Redhat ES, CentOS. Another ordeal, the high CPU usage has appeared in
HLDS, not just SRCDS, however as I said, it is less severe in HLDS.
And last of all, the bandwidth usage of HLDS is almost 3x the amount
of bandwidth SRCDS uses, for no apparent reason. Alfred, leaving the
tickrate @ standard 33 is not doing anything for the gameplay, causes
choppy gameplay to start with.
