Re: [hlds] [hlds_linux] TF2 server performance spikes

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.

Did you update? for the past hour or so I've been getting complaints about spikes, I'm thinking it's something non-threaded using the Steam API. I noticed Avatars have been working since the change, but I'm just pulling at straws now. vprof hasn't rendered anything useful. Here's a vprof dump
