Sounds more like a Garry's Mod issue than a Source DS one.

Steve, do you / have you run any Garry's Mod servers in sandbox mode? We have machines that are 4 physical Xeons (i.e. 8 cores), machines that are dual AMD opterons, etc... and the same old story with maxxing out the CPU. I assume you run GMod 10 servers, and would love to hear your secret to getting stable, consistent behavior with more than 16 players in sandbox mode. We've run 32 players before, and things are fine until large contraptions are created and Gmod requires huge amounts of CPU. -Thanks -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Steven Hartland Sent: Tuesday, April 17, 2007 1:10 PM To: hlds@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlds] RE: DoDS cpu and SMP time-line Not sure what you class as top-of-the-line machines but you should be able to run more than 16 players total on a good Intel Core 2 / AMD 64 box.
