I hacked a bit ( https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=1953195 ) to get effectively the same no-compression functionality for the other OB games. Here's some new vprof dumps that I took earlier today. http://pastie.org/private/kywlfyn5teu0lxqghgyjg

Has anybody used vprof spike mode? This sort of problem is pretty much exactly what it was designed to investigate. E.g. vprof_on vprof_dump_spikes 20 // dump a vprof report if frame rate drops below 20 If the problem is caused by network traffic, using the -netspike command line

The problem with vprof is SRCDS has become very verbose with bogus data table warnings and clients flooding server messages by running commands without args. There's con_logfile, but once that starts, it cannot be stopped. I had a 90MB~ log file after a couple hours, which isn't fun on an SSD.

It's highly possible you're running on a supported game. I had a vprof1.txt in that directory once, and it said no samples. I had thought I created the file, but it's highly possible it does work. If it doesn't work for you, I have a horrible, horrible SM extension available. What it does is
