We've got dedicated server, 6 x 2.3ghz (AMD Opteron 6276), 16GB RAM, 200GB HDD,
which struggles to run a full 24 slot TF2 server smoothly.
It used to be running CentOS 5.x, and a TF2 server would occasionally spike
beyond 100% of a core. Months of experimentation resulted in some improvement,
but nothing really satisfying.
Also tried all the things suggested in
http://wiki.fragaholics.de/index.php/EN:Linux_Optimization_Guide
For the last few days, it's been rebuilt with Debian 6.0 with a
built-on-the-box kernel of 3.3.1, following the recommendations listed in the
fragaholics' wiki.

Still there has been no improvement. If anything it's worse with sustained
periods of srcds_linux requiring more than 100% of a core.
The TF2 server is just running a basic sourcemod setup.
I would start by just running TF2, no plugins, no mysql et al.
If that works, then you know where the problem is.
If it doesn't (and unless you can find some configuration or os-related
problem) then you know it never will.
