I think you're right on the sys_tickrate.
I know that the + can be exec'd in game or at console and that - is console
only. I do have sys_ticrate defined in server.cfg in another section. I
think I had the - because of our source servers.
I've downloaded the , srcdsfpsboost.zip but that doesn't seem to do the
trick. I'm still maxed at 64 w/ that or 85 w/ WMP.

So I've been banging my head against the KB for some time now. I've tried
both WMP and srcdsbooster and I'm still unable to get more than 85 FPS
server side. Any idea why this would happen?
We have two larger windows configs and they both behave the same. One is
an
Opteron 242 and the other is a dual xeon 2.4. Other than the procs, the
HW
specs are the same. Here are my specs:
dual xeon 2.4 Ghz, 2 GB RAM, 80 GB 10K RPM HDD.
Two servers (HLDS_W DOD)
1 x 32 (Bound to proc 3, physical proc 2)
1 x 24 (Bound to proc 0, physical proc 1)
Both servers are started w/ the following cmd line options:
-console -heapsize 262144 -game dod +ip <server IP> +port 27015
+maxplayers
<maxplayer> +exec server.cfg -dll addons\metamod\dlls\metamod.dll +map
<map
name> -pingboost 3 -sys_tickrate 66
Is heapsize a valid command line option for the server? I always thought
that it was.
Is pingboost 3 still a valid option for windows servers?
Both servers use the following server.cfg settings.
//-----------------------------------------------
// Server Performance (Base)

sv_allowdownload 1
sv_allowupload 1
sv_maxrate 10000

The srcds booster can be found in the "how to get the most out of my
HLDS/SRCDS" topic, in the steam support area, in the form of a link to
download.

Instead of wasting time with extra memory from IE and Flash, try finding
that srcdsfpsboost.zip file. It is a program that only calls the
appropriate Win32 timer functions to set the time resolution. (ie the
same thing WMP and Flash do)

It works for both HLDS & SRCDS as its ia and OS level effect not
application
level.

Well since the poster wrote he was using media player, I just
assumed
he
was talking about running an HL1 mod of some sort. im not even
sure
if
that works for srcds or not. But if it does then running media
player
would
take up more CPU then just running a SWF file minimized.
when i use it, it boost's my FPS on my win2k server to 500.

i'm interested in how the hell running a swf file in IE can boost
the
fps of a srcds server. Surely running a flash anim would slow it
down.
Or is there a special trick this ageing noob dosn't know about.

That's for srcds not regular HLDS. :)

sv_maxrate is not enough for a 100 tickrate server
sv_maxupdaterate of 40 is lower than the CS:SRCDS default of 60 and
would
nullify the benefit of running at 100 tickrate
Setting the sv_minupdaterate to anything atm seems to cause strange
issues
for lots of people if the fps drops even for a millisecond

It's been my experience that win2k is the better win OS to run a
server
on.
Im running almost the exact server setup except there HL1
mods. one
32
slot dod1.3 one 13 slot match and one 20 slot HLTV.
Sv_maxrate 12000
Sv_minupdaterate 20
Sv_maxupdaterate 40 I swear by these rate settings. i
have
tested
many settings over the last 3 years that i have run server HL1
servers.
And ill never run any other settings.
i do however run fedora core 4. which i cannot recommend highly
enough.

One of my dedicated servers is suffering terribly to lag and
choke
P4 3.0 Ghz 630 ( so 64 bit and HT technologys ) CPU, 1GB ram,
100mbit
connection
1x 24 Slot 100 Tick Rate server ( Public)
1x 13 Slot 100 Tick Rate server ( Match with 1x 128 slot SRCTV )
choke is terrbile, restarts doesnt fix it, re-install doesnt
fix it,
nor
does restarting the whole box
its Win Xp Pro, SP2 latest updates, latest install of SCRDS, and
ServerDoc
to catch crashes and restarts
HELP !!
none of my servers suffer as badley, if not, not at all, and
they run
more,
like 3x servers :@
i dont get it

What is the CPU Usage like when these are running full? And the
100
Tick
Rate could be something to do with it.
