srcds.exe taking alot of cpu(???)

[Mike]

There is no way to make it use more cores.

[gamemann]

oh okay

[johnoz]

i think you are using some module which is doing this, If not then may be some viruses be there like bad sectors or memory external error

well idk... All i know its starting to fps drop like crazy... After i got gamebooster and advanced system care and upgraded my internet package it started fps dropping like this... But gamebooster and advanced system care speeds up the pc? i dont get it...

Heres my current rates:

Code:

// bandwidth rates/settings
fps_max 66.67 // command-line value
sv_maxrate 40000
sv_minrate 5000
sv_mincmdrate 66
sv_maxcmdrate 67
sv_minupdaterate 66
sv_maxupdaterate 67
//net_splitpacket_maxrate 100000
//net_queued_packet_thread 1
//sv_client_min_interp_ratio 0 // 0, 0ms, 1 - 15ms, 2 - 30ms, 3 - 45ms
//sv_client_max_interp_ratio 6
//sv_maxunlag .5
//sv_unlag 1
//sv_parallel_packentities 0
//sv_parallel_sendsnapshot 0

[gamemann]

okay now i know this is something else... I dont think this is the processor...
before i downloaded gamebooster and advanced system care and upgraded my internet package, the fps was like this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yL4Ml-rF-yk&feature=related
watch the video and look at the sv: tag...
Now in these images i am going to list below, the fps is dropping big time and theres only 15-16 people in it(it says there is 19 but like 4 of them are specators), on the video there was 14 people...
http://games223.com/1.jpg
http://games223.com/2.jpg
http://games223.com/3.jpg

before i upgraded package the rates were:

Code:

// bandwidth rates/settings
fps_max 66.67 // command-line value
sv_maxrate 20000
sv_minrate  10000
sv_mincmdrate 66
sv_maxcmdrate 67
sv_minupdaterate 66
sv_maxupdaterate 67
net_splitpacket_maxrate 100000
net_queued_packet_thread 1
sv_client_min_interp_ratio 0 // 0, 0ms, 1 - 15ms, 2 - 30ms, 3 - 45ms
sv_client_max_interp_ratio 6
sv_maxunlag .5
sv_unlag 1
sv_parallel_packentities 0
sv_parallel_sendsnapshot 0

Now with the fps lag its:

Code:

// bandwidth rates/settings
fps_max 66.67 // command-line value
sv_maxrate 40000
sv_minrate 5000
sv_mincmdrate 66
sv_maxcmdrate 67
sv_minupdaterate 66
sv_maxupdaterate 67
//net_splitpacket_maxrate 100000
//net_queued_packet_thread 1
//sv_client_min_interp_ratio 0 // 0, 0ms, 1 - 15ms, 2 - 30ms, 3 - 45ms
//sv_client_max_interp_ratio 6
//sv_maxunlag .5
//sv_unlag 1
//sv_parallel_packentities 0
//sv_parallel_sendsnapshot 0

I tried // those other commands idk if they were useful or not...

[dualcore1289]

Personally, I have not had great experience with the rates that close together. Also the game boost is junk. It does not work. What else do you have running on the server that is causing the high cpu usage? Also, I would try these rates. . .

fps_max 67 // command-line value
sv_maxrate 40000
sv_minrate 12000
sv_mincmdrate 33
sv_maxcmdrate 66
sv_minupdaterate 33
sv_maxupdaterate 66

Also, what OS is the server?

os is windows home server 2003 i believe... And ill try those rates...

heres another image of the server:

EDIT:
could it be the latest css update? Because i updated it after i got the package and every since its been lagging?

EDIT 2:
heres my command line:

If you are still experiencing that much of a fps drop, just up the fps to 100-150 and call it a day.

i still am but idk why... i thought its better to do fps_max 67 so its like steady?

[dualcore1289]

No, its better to have stable 67fps, but if you cant keep it stable, then going higher will help you, as you don't get the low fps drops.

alright thanks

[gamemann]

Well for all that wanted to know how i fixed this...
Idk if this was a fix or not...
But i just made my sv_maxrate 25000....
And somehow it got better, but idk if that was it...
Maybe it was like a 5 day thing or something because i thought sv_maxrate was internet not server fps... Well anyway works now with fps_max to 400

[ExodusHosting]

What panel did you download?
