[TF2] FPS drops and stability issues >.<

[Snake4life]

Ok Im just the happies Administrator in the world.

my server specs:

Debian 5.0.8 x86_64
i7 - 920 quad core
8GB ddr3 - 1600 mem
2x 250gb hdd

Im so happy about the server, that I cant get stable fps & a nice stable tick x)
take a look:





max_fps 396

sv_minupdaterate 33.3
sv_maxupdaterate 33.4

see those empty holes in the netgraph?
and the choke...

[BehaartesEtwas]

why do you run with fps_max 396?

try fps_max 33.3 and leave sv_maxupdaterate/sv_maxcmdrate alone (i.e. unset or > 33.3).

but, I am not sure if that helps you. what else is running on that machine? did you try any linux optimizations?

[Snake4life]

there is nothing more running then this server, I never did any kernel changes bec. I was running my gameserver on a vps the last 3years

[BehaartesEtwas]

you are running on a vps? that will be the problem then. you are even lucky it does not run much worse. vpses are not for hosting game servers, rent a real dedicated root server (or a stand-alone game server).

[Snake4life]

no its a dedicated server my old one was a vps

i7 - 920 quad core
8GB ddr3 - 1600 mem
2x 250gb hdd

my old one was a vps with 3ghz limit or something

I never made my own kernel look like I need a self made kernel now >.<

[Snake4life]

ok fixed it, kernel change now I got stable 480fps - what a waste x)
