xen VPS ... I really want the OS to be Linux with SSH access
You should repost this question in the hlds_linux mailinglist, I've found at
my expenses that srcds has very different performances on linux and windows.
BTW, on a Xeon 3520 (server version of i7 920 @ 2.66Ghz), a 32 slots TF2
server saturates one core on linux (with fps drops), while uses up to one
core and a half on windows (with no fps drops).

Question for you all, i'm currently renting a xen VPS and hosting a 32 man
server on it, it handles 28 players no problem but when we get 32/32 the FPS
drops below the tickrate and ingame lag becomes apparent.
I'm considering two options:
1. Build a box and host it.
2. Find another provider.
I don't mind switching providers assuming I get the control I want, I
really want the OS to be Linux with SSH access. Anyone have any suggestions?
I'm currently paying $60/month.
If i were to build a server what processor spec's would you recommend to
run a 32 man server on? The server is nearly 32/32 all day so i want
something powerful enough to handle that, plus be able to support any 'bad
patches' that can put a strain on the cpu in the future.
What CPU's is everyone running for their 32 man server(s)? Do you have any
historical data to show CPU usage so I can get a feel for the usage and how
much CPU is still left when full. I'd really like to have the CPU sit at
75%CPU when full and playing a heavy map like hoodoo.
