Thanks,

This has managed to reduce the number of spikes (less frequent) and reduced CPU 
usage quite considerably (floats at 45-60% with 32 players, compared to 80-90%) 
so spikes don't have much of an impact. Why the spikes still occur is beyond me 
- at rare times it would just spazz and spike to 120% for a few minutes (going 
up/down).

I do hope the spikes get fixed soon (tested without /addons) - before steampipe 
a higher net_splitpacket_maxrate value would use more CPU & create a smoother 
gameplay (if CPU isn't being overloaded), although now it seems the opposite is 
happening.

% are based on E3-1230V2 @ 3.3 Ghz - OS: Linux Debian

Has valve still not been able to re-create this problem?
