Hello again,
Before positing here, please read the introduction post first.
To start my series of posts, I am showing below what server(s) I currently run on and I would appreciate if everybody could do the same so people from around the world could have a good estimation on what machine could better suit their needs. I am personaly only hosting CSS servers on SRDCS and I will be pleased if people share info about other games but please keep it about SRCDS or eventually HLDS, as this is what the forum is all about.
I have read and heard people pretending to be able to run 50 servers on the same computer and I would ask people posting here to keep it realistic and to provide (as much as possible) with "objective" information, meaning that the data you provide was tested at full throttle with all or allmost all slots filled and with a brief description of the other services running. Also, please provide as much as required information about your system, your bandwidth or about gaming experience and howlong you are running it. Please copy paste the block below to describe your own servers.
Small Server:
CPU: Intel C2D 2x 2.33Ghz (E6550)
RAM: 1Gb DDR2, Same amount of Swap (Ideally unused)
OS: Linux (Debian Etch) with 1000Hz Kernel
HD: 2x 250Gb, SATA, Raid 0/1
Bandwidth: 100Mbps
SRCDS Servers:
CS:S Public Server, 16 Slots at Tick 100 (FFA)
CS:S Public Server, 16 Slots at Tick 100 (FFA)
CS:S Public Server, 16 Slots at Tick 66 (Gungame)
CS:S Public Server, 24 Slots at Tick 66 (ZombieMod)
Performance (All Slots Filled):
50% of CPU & 98% of RAM
Remarks:
With another 16 Slots@T66, all servers start lagging and swap is used.
When no one is on the tick100, ram gets down a bit but not 25% less.
If servers are not restarted daily, lags shows easilly on the next day.
Running fine for 3 months now
LAMP Webserver: apache, php, mysql (1 per server)
This would consitute a good "team" dedicated offer
Medium Server (Under Testing):
CPU: Intel C2Q 4x 2.4Ghz (Q6600)
RAM: 8Gb DDR2, Same amount of Swap (Ideally unused)
OS: Linux (Debian Etch) with 1000Hz Kernel
HD: 2x 250Gb, SATA, Raid HARD 1
Bandwidth: 1Gbps
Remarks:
Testing this computer/offer, should be the "regular" computer
To be finalized / setup by end of april, will be re-edited.
