And in this case, one really CAN question why this is so. I remember when moving from Q3F/ETF (quake3/enemy territory based TeamFortress) to HL/SRC. I had 2x24 servers on ONE p4-3ghz and 4gb ram and while both pubs were full and packed with action, that ONE cpu would chew up ~85% cpu.
I started hosting with a Dual Pentium 3 with ~1GHz. This was the best you could get at this time and there was NO problem running some HLDS servers on it ;)
To be fair - we are on source now. But from my sysadmin point of view the game didn't really changed. Some fancy graphics shouldn't affect a server. And limiting the server FPS to force "improving" cpu usage isn't the solution valve. Please debug and do some real optimizations!
