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? > Date: Sat, 25 May 2013 23:11:48 -0400 > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] [hlds] TF2 server performance spikes > > We were experiencing some small lag spikes on our servers, but fixed the > problem by increasing the convar net_splitpacket_maxrate to 100000 (up from > 15000). > On May 25, 2013 4:46 PM, "Abdulrahman Abdulkawi" <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > Is there anyone who used to have this problem, have had the issue resolved > > after the update? > > > > I'd appreciate all the responses as to whether it still happens for you or > > not. > > > > Thanks! > > > > > Date: Sat, 18 May 2013 20:45:54 -0400 > > > From: [email protected] > > > To: [email protected] > > > Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] [hlds] TF2 server performance spikes > > > > > > Is there anything we can or should add to our server.cfg file to help > > > mitigate all these lag spikes and such?
