Laurenz, since so many people are experiencing this problem, could you go into a bit more detail about exactly what hostnames were being resolved in a blocking manner? I don't think we are making any blocking DNS calls that might cause ticks to not get processed, but if we are I'd like to know. Or if it's some plugin that's doing it, it would be great to know what plugin it is.
Seems like the correct solution is not to eliminate use the use of DNS names, but to eliminate the blocking DNS calls. I think we probably have a number of different potential sources of lag, but it would be good to start getting a catalog of them. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Laurenz Ruprecht Sent: Sunday, February 19, 2012 5:23 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] No Steam Logon - massive lag Importance: High Please change your DNS to any other stable DNS server. Also have a look to ALL of your plugins and replace ALL hostnames with ip addresses. I really think this steam issues are a result of DNS problems. We changed the hostnames to clear ip addresses and the problem is fixed.
