Hi, i have a serious problem with my players ping/lag. I think, that comes from my server-side fps fluctuation. Is there some way to make it really really stable?
I tried a lot of things, like: - Changing sys_ticrate to 0, 100, 120, 333, 500, 1000, etc. - Recompile kernel with/without: Dynamic Ticks 100/250/300/1000 HZ Preemtible/No Forced Preemtion (Desktop/Server) Machine Check Exeption Microcode Patch NUMA MTRR High Resolution Timer Multi-core scheduler hpet real time clock dma (i think the problem comes from here.. kernel settings..) - Another kernel with rt patch (following this guide: http://wiki.fragaholics.de/index.php/EN:Linux_Kernel_Optimization) - Allocating process to specific core (taskset) - Using nice/renice/chrt - Booting kernel with noapic noapm My hardware is: Mother Intel DQ45CB Executive Series Micro Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 3.0ghz 1333 12MB 775 RAM Kingston 8gb DDR2 800mhz (4 x 2gb) in Dual Channel Mode Disk Seagate 7200.11 500gb 7200RPM 32mb Cache Power Allied or CoolerMaster 460W Case Rack 2U 6 coolers Nothing helps, when i start more than 3 hlds servers, the fps fluctuates every time. Someone has this problem? Anyone can really fix this to make fps server side stable? Here is an example with 120 sys_ticrate: 04:37:40 CPU In Out Uptime Users FPS Players 2.80 1.94 3.54 1237 27495 108.47 1 04:37:40 CPU In Out Uptime Users FPS Players 3.00 1.94 3.53 1237 27495 21.01 1 04:37:40 CPU In Out Uptime Users FPS Players 3.00 1.89 3.25 1237 27495 108.11 1 Another example with 10000 sys_ticrate: 04:40:03 CPU In Out Uptime Users FPS Players 3.50 0.00 0.00 1239 27496 963.39 0 04:40:04 CPU In Out Uptime Users FPS Players 3.50 0.00 0.00 1239 27496 95.96 0 04:40:04 CPU In Out Uptime Users FPS Players 3.50 0.00 0.00 1239 27496 945.18 0 04:40:39 CPU In Out Uptime Users FPS Players 3.75 0.00 0.00 1240 27496 50.26 0 Thanks for your time.
