Sorry for duplicate answers, but:
Choke is when the player can't receive all the packets that the server
are sending.
look at your min and max cmdrate values and you can perhaps find a solution.

Hi all,
I know this has been up before, but since the Pyro update i've had a
rise in comments about lag, and bad/off hit registration from players
that have ping in the 20-30 range.
So, i've ofcourse tried tweaking settings a bit on the servers, trying
to find out what would be causing the problems, but I am pretty
stumped as to what I can do, and I was hoping for some help.
I've gotten some net_graph pictures from one of the players, who is on
a 15mbit line, a ping around 30 to the server, measured in Windows,
and they look like this, http://imgur.com/a/6gPBT
As far as I understand, a high choke is bad, and this doesn't look
good a all.
What I can see, aside from the choke, when I compare the graph to my
own, is that his graph is extremely "spiky", while mine is "smooth"
(hard to explain, I have graph points at almost every pixel, while his
is spaced with a couple of pixels in between)
Does anyone have any pointers as to what I can do to try and alleviate
this problem? As mentioned, it hasn't always been this way on the
servers (ofcourse, lag has occured for some players from time to
time), but the guy I used above has not changed internet or anything,
and things have simply gone from good to bad, with no apparent changes
other than TF2 updates.
A word about the servers, they are all hosted at a colo with plenty of
bandwidth (multi Gb), running at max 80% CPU with plenty of RAM to
spare. (Not rented servers, this is my own iron)
