U could try changing the priority control Regedit, HKEY LOCAL MACHINE>SYSTEM>CURRENTCONTROLSET>CONTROL>PIORITYCONTROL There is a key called Win32PrioritySeparation right click it and pick Decimal, then change the value to about 30 if u run more then 6 servers on that box. And about 36 if u only run a handful.
Set the priority of the Gameservers to High, don't ever set it to real time unless u only run one Gameserver on that machine. And u could try a pingbooster, but I would advice not to, if u run more then 4 servers on the specs of your server. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of jon Sent: Sunday, May 30, 2004 12:20 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [hlds] Server tweaking I'm seeing an issue on my servers. I'm running a Dual 2.8ghz xeon w/ HT. 2 gigs of ram. 100mbit to backbone connection. win2k3 Every time I get above a certain number of players (around 70) I get sever lag problems on the server. As I notice this I'll connect to the machine and watch the task-manager. CPU usage is no higher than 60%. I run the HLDS processes on "above average" priority. I'd like to know if there's any windows tweaking I could do to get the pings in the servers lower. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
