Super Fast SRCDS System

[HolyDuFF]

Hey, i just finished creating my new SRCDS system as i would like to call it. You can view it below. And i was just wondering if there is any other SRCDS developers out there that is using a system like this or even more advanced or better/faster. You may do this by adding your vote to the poll. Also i would like to hear what you guys on this forum thinks about this system. Please bear in mind that this boot up is done on a regular 7200RPM SATA II HDD. I also thought this was the right topic to post this thread in cus i am asking you guys general questions and it's running on Windows. I don't want to advertise about anything with this thread. Thats why i have removed the ads from the description i posted below. But if you moderators thinks that it should be in the "The Big Commercial Pit" topic. It's fine with me. Anyway heres the video and the description.





Description

This is the SRCDS System for HDG 5.0


Information

- This is only the BETA version of this system
- This system is made for Counter-Strike: Source
- It took me 9 days to create this system
- All 10 servers is running on the same SRCDS installation
- It was developed by me (HolyDuFF) and Ecca
- HDG 4.0's SRCDS System is a regular system just like the others
- HDG 4.0's system only boots 3 servers
- HDG 4.0's system usually boots 10 servers around 12 minutes


Content

- Booting the system from a windows logon (1 min and 34 sec)
- Showing that all the servers runs from the same SRCDS installation and executable
- Showing that all the servers are different servers and are online (10 Servers)
- Restarting the system (11 sec)
- Showing folder properties of the system
- Showing how many maps/cfg files the system has
- Showing how many SourceMod Plugins the system has (106 Plugins)
- Showing Ecca's awesome plugin
- Showing my awesome anti server clone plugin
- Compairing it to HDG 4.0's SRCDS System (2 min and 4 sec)


Pros

- All the servers are run on the same SRCDS installation
- It's lightning fast (Up to 10 times faster than HDG 4.0)
- Low CPU/RAM usage
- Stable as hell
- The server core has 62 SourceMod Plugins (All servers are using this 62 plugins)
- Any changes to the core or these 62 plugins will change it on all the servers (So if i need to change something i don't have to do it 10 times)
- It has an extremely high security for both DoS/DDoS attacks, server cloners and hacks (It detects x22 Cheats)
- It's pure SourceMod
- The ranking system is the same for all the servers (So you will have the same ranking stats on all the servers)


Cons

- Seriously, i can't find any...


Times

HDG 5.0 Boot: 1 min and 34 sec (10 Servers)
HDG 4.0 Boot: 2 min and 4 sec (3 Servers)
HDG 4.0 Boot: Around 12 minutes (10 Servers)
HDG 5.0 Restart: 11 sec (10 Servers)
HDG 4.0 Restart: 30 sec (3 Servers)
HDG 4.0 Restart: Around 2 minutes (10 Servers)

and, what is the point of all of this? i can run a single server that runs 999999999999999x faster than all of yours combined LMAO:

[solrosen]

How did you du so all you servers is combined

[HolyDuFF]

click4dylan, i don't see how the FPS affects the server. HDG 5.0 runs at the same FPS as HDG 4.0 thus it's up to 10 times faster. So if you want your argument to be valid. Please post a video were you start 10 diffrent servers on startup from a windows logon. And also include when you are restarting all 10 of them. If you don't, then your argument is invalid. And to solrosen, my method is my little secret

[click4dylan]

and how does starting them up faster have anything to do with actual in-game performance?


simply stick a SSD and your server should boot up within 2-3 seconds

NO way your software protects against DDoS attacks...

@Dylan, 50% CPU usage on an empty server? Ew...

[joe.powell]

Id just like to point out, that all of my servers run from Windows Start Up

This means that I dont have to log into the remote box to start anything, which is handy if the box restarts at 5am and I am asleep.

I dont mean to be rude, but what does this system actually do? I cant see any benefit from running how anyone else would run it, to your method.

Please correct me if im wrong?

Also the general spec of my box is alot higher than yours unfortunatly.

[click4dylan]

the 50% cpu usage was due to the fps being completely unlimited, it uses between 0-1% when empty if i leave fps at 100-2000

Agreed, it will not prevent DDos attacks.

[Time Sheep]

I was just about to ask why your servers only use half the RAM as mine, but my servers are GMod sandboxes with a lot of different building packs on, soooo
I can't quite figure how you do... Hmmm...
Challenge accepted!

Yes, and then it will read/write and operate faster. So it will run better and cause less lag when like recalculating the stats and so on.

It prevents DoS/DDoS Attacks from programs that are used to attack srcds.exe not DoS/DDoS Attacks from programs that are used to take down the other users network connection completely.
