I installed the libc6-i686 optimized library on my debian 3.1 (see also my earlier mail) and the lag spikes are much smaller. The server still appears a little jittery on hlsw, but now ping varies from 8 to 20 instead of 80. The server is playable, although I have seen more stable pingtimes in the past. Thanks for sharing Philip. And Valve: why not put a -testing option on Steam, so people can help you beta test with more comfort and less agitation for players and providers. The fact that there are so many debian stable users should tell you we like nice and stable well tested software for production work.
