Hey,
I have a Q6600 with 1 32 slot TF2 server per core on a 100mb port. What are the ideal rate settings for it? Unlimited BW. Right now I just have maxcmd, max rate and max update rate at 100 and 30000 and min at 66 and 10000. People get choke in net graph 3, so thats why im asking. I also want the best performance on my box.

A 32 Slot TF2 is known to require a little over 1 core.
Choke can be caused by internet lag to, if frames are being dropped.

A few people have said to set the affinity, my servers peek at 90 percent on a core. Goes down to 40 tick. I had the maxrates at 66 earlier but people complained and wanted 100. It wasnt as much as an issue till I noticed 50 choke.

try my default rates i use these for majority of my servers.
sv_maxrate 25000
sv_minrate 7500
sv_minupdaterate 10
sv_maxupdaterate 100
sv_mincmdrate 10
sv_maxcmdrate 100
My general rule of thumb
1-15 slots - 100 Tic maxrate 30000
15 - 20 slots - 100 Tic maxrate 25000
20 + slots - 66 tic maxrate 20000

TF2 can run at 66 tick or 33 tick!
We currently restart our TF2 servers weekly, RAM usage gets a bit high towards the end of the week so make sure you have a lot. When I say a lot about 4GB, RAM usage gets to around 3.3GB.

Mine hadnt been restarted in 4 days or so and they started getting terrible choke. They are full 24/7 though. I have 4 gigs of ram too.
