I've narrowed it down. It occurs when turning corners or viewing a new area

nothing normal with these pauses. It's completely unreasonable to expect
people to play that way. You lose all control for a 1/2 a second to a full
second. At this point it's really starting to look like a client issue.
Narrow it down to help determine the cause, not the symptoms :-)
You haven't narrowed it down to whether it's your servers, all servers
or not even the servers at all but caused by the client etc etc.
But my point wasn't really whether what's happening to you when you see
a graph like that is normal or not, but simply that a gap in that graph
does happen normally as well. So showing someone a picture of a graph
with a gap in it, is unlikely to either tell them what's happening or to
let them see what's happening.
If it happened to me I'd be "Yeah, it sucks, let's hope Valve fix it",
but I've played for hundreds of hours since the
Halloween update without the issue.
That said, if you think it's the client you want to think what you've
changed - Video card drivers, OS updates etc, TF2 config since it
started to happen, or just go through the list to narrow it down and
eliminate these things - I'd write a list but I feel like I wasted my
time last time, so I suppose you'll be better off sorting out client
problems like that on different forums / groups.
