srcds rates

[atrai]

Hi i am hosting a css server from home and I was just wondering if anyone could recommend me server rates.

my upload speed is- 1546 Kb/s

If your rates are set to 20KB/s (rate 20000) then you can host around 9 slots.

If you set your tickrate to 33 and rate to 10000 you can probably double that, but expect a lot of lag.

Hmm, right now there is 13 people on my server and my max rate is 10000, tickrate is 66 and my upload is not even half of its max. I wonder why that is.. confused
