Re: [hlds] TF2 srcds infinite loops.
While I am running on Linux I've noticed the same thing. I've unloaded all plugins and still noticed that when a mapchange occurs it hangs at 100% for a long time. If I leave it alone it eventually will respond. However it's not quick enough and it always kills my server (in terms of players). It just recently started doing it. Combatted it by trying to not have the map change anymore. I had thought it was from the server flushing the logfile after being on a single map all day, but I disabled file logging and that didn't make a difference. Steven J.

Re: [hlds] TF2 srcds infinite loops.
I kind of noticed that, I have a script that restarts my server if it does not respond to a query for roughly a minute. One time last night during a map change it did nearly get to restarting it (timed out 8 times, restarts when it times out 10 times) before coming back to life. I remember looking at my HLSW at one point and saw 1 red mark (map change) then a short time later seeing a large red block and it eventually coming back. I thought it crashed but when I did status the userids were too high for it just restarting. I checked my logs and sure enough it timed out for about 40-45 seconds or so shortly after the map change.

Re: [hlds] TF2 srcds infinite loops.
We've been having this issue on all four of our TF2 servers. We haven't really figured out what causes it. Our first thought was that it is related to the ctf_doublecross map, so we pulled it from our rotation on the one server that used it. The problem started to manifest in other servers that weren't running doublecross, though. At this point, we are blaming it on the Equipment Manager sourcemod plugin. Since removing that plugin from our servers, they haven't been freezing. We haven't added doublecross back to the server it was being used on, yet, but I'm really hoping that it's not the cause, since that map is extremely fun to play.

I'm with you on this I don't watch my servers 24/7 but I do get emails on lock-up's and reboots. I have even noticed a steady decrease in server lock-up issues over the past few updates.

Re: [hlds] TF2 srcds infinite loops.
This tends to happen on doublecross a lot. Complete lock up and 2 cores we associated with srcds get saturated.

Voogru, I am just curious, as I am using a custom script ( in php ) aswell. Do you run it on a crontab / windows sced, or does it loop internally? I am also seeing this huge time between maps. For me its about 30-45 seconds. I thought it may have been with the tweaks ( not tf2 related ) I had done to my kernel, so I reverted them and it still does it.
