Server lags when player connects
#1
Hi, I inherited a semi unused community TF2 server to use for our 6v6 TF2 team. We had lag issues in the past but they were never resolved. We had a post on here before about it but it eventually died off. Please keeping in mind while I am fairly competent in computers I never had to use linux for anything. While I managed to figure out SSH to add a map to the server please keep my inexperience in mind when explaining.

The problem is that whenever a player tries to connect to the server we experience lag.

Thanks for the reply. Before I dig into messing with things about linux I dont understand is there anyway I can tell before hand if my kernel is unoptimized? Will optimizing hurt the server unintentionally if I do something wrong or its unnecessary?
