It has to be something configuration wise since others with less beefy machines are running the same loads.
HOw did you install CentOS? di you use the minimal install and then add stuff in? I always install via minimal install and then yum install <whatever i need>. This minimizes the crap that gets installed anyways. What all do you have running in the background on this machine? I bet sendmail is on there maong other things if you did not do a minimal installation. Scott Tuttle wrote:
I am running amxmodx. 77MB 32.4% cpu utilization on a full 20 man cs server. The system has 2GB of ram. My problem isnt how much memory its using. It is the cpu utilization. I don't believe I had this problem when the server was running the Windows OS. I will try different distros as soon as I get my second server built to replace the one that is currently running servers. I don't want 2 weeks of downtime while I try to figure out why I cant run the same amount of servers on linux as I once ran, with no issues, on windows. So I play to set up a windows server to use while I try to figure out the optimization issues I must be having. For now, I am trying to get a baseline of cpu utilization statistics of other hlds_linux users/what distros/what cpus they are running so I have a target to shoot for. If anyone would take the time to do rcon stats on a full server for me and provide some of this information then I would really appreciate it. cat server.cfg // Use this file to configure your DEDICATED server. // This config file is executed everytime the server changes levels. // ------- // Any modifications made to this file will not take affect before the server has been restarted. // If you are running Admin-Mod make sure the Admin-Mod variables are located at the bottom // of this file, otherwise your server will crash on startup. hostname "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" // Server Settings // Log On must be ON if you are using psychostats.
