need help big time (fps)
#1
ok guys need your help here , its got me totally confused
server specs
dual xeon quad core CPU's
8gig ram
4x80gig sata h.d.d raid 5
windows 64bit
no am running 16 servers or so bout 300 slots total
servers set to fps_max 600
have srcdsfpsboost running
now the problem I have is the fps is not consistent , I see drops from 512 down to 100 , then the server gets a kinda graphic lag.iv tried everything for shutting all servers down and just running the one server, no good.
I even see the fps jump to 590fps.
iv checked server cfg's there fine.
anyone got any suggestions , because its driving me nuts lol .

Do you have 8 srcdsfpsboosters running?

There should be 1 running on every core (be sure to set affinity)

Hey Drocona why do you need srcdsfpsbooster running on every core?

You dont need an instance of the booster running on each core. Only one instance needs to be running, as it's an internal windows timer unrelated to the amount of CPU's.

To OP, whats the CPU usage like, a core/multiple cores could be maxing out and causing the sudden drop.

CPU usage if fine never see it go over 25% on each core

Xeons seem to be giving everyone a pain the ass lately. What ghz do you have per core?

I was personally having some problems with my E6600, with only 1 srcdsfpsbooster running I would get really weird FPS values, one time it's 60 next time it's 500.
Then I put one on each core and it seems to be rock steady at 512 on 7 servers..

Don't know why, cause like blik said it's setting the OS timer different... but it worked for me.

Ontopic:
I had someone else lately with the exact same problem, I'll see if he still has it or found a fix.

ok fps seems to be ok , I was looking at the stats in hlsw which was showing me the incorrect fps lol.
but now I have another problem.its hard to explain .in dods you get shot and you sometimes don't here the sound of being shot or nades going off,its kinda like a graphic lag.im starting to think it could be a hdd problem.has anyone seen this problem before?.
I have 4 80gig sata drives 7200rpm on raid 5 .write speeds don't look to bad.

>affinity
I have 8 servers (6 css , 1 tf2 , 1 dod), fpsbooster, win 2k3 x86, i use fireDaemon to run servers
if I set affinity I have lags and some loss in game
if I dont set affinity all is normal, no loss, no lags

>gordo1046
try to set fps_max 0
don't set affinity
and use fireDaemon or else to set servers like service, because win 2k3 is more optimise to rus service than app
and use simple server.cfg something like that, don't put to much variables

Seems like another Xeon problem to me, we are not sure what's happening that dips the FPS to very low amounts, I have had quite a few people stating to have that problem on Xeons, we don't have a solution as of yet, if you find it please post!
