Hmm, well that's no good. What about programs or bios settings that cause the
high resolution timer to be lower than expected?
Unreal 3 engine does this
COD engine does this
Multiple other engines do this as well
Also I believe that even Windows 2008 with HPET enabled in the bios will have
the same effect. Are srcds servers going to run badly if HPET is enabled or
other softwares are installed that cause the high resolution timer to be
0.997ms?

Oh. I kind of assumed that people wouldn't still be running those "FPS boost"
hacks now. I'm sure that they interact terribly with the new timing code. Please get rid
of those. We probably should have called that out in the update notice.

This maybe useful to some people.
I was running higher FPS servers (500 fps) 0n my win 2008R2 server with
sourcefpsbooster running. After the update I noticed lots of lag but once I
disabled the fps booster the lag went away. As there is no need for it when
the tick/fps is locked at 66. So maybe that will help some of you. I
personally now can't tell a difference.

I too couldn't care less about the raging nerds who try to squeeze the
last bit of performance out of their game, even if it gives them an
unfair advantage over the majority of other players. The game should be
fun and fair for everyone. Believe it or not, I'm still playing with a
PC dated 2005 and my client FPS drop below 20 quite often in TF2. I
highly doubt that anyone would notice any difference in server FPS
playing from such a machine, and I'm quite happy that Valve levels the
playing field in this regard. If - for some people - the in-game
experience isn't smooth enough, I recommend getting a life.

Just one thing - keep going valve, i really appreciate the changes you
guys are doing regarding fps and tickrate! I might even start playing
css again because of this :)
(Please don't start flaming me for spamming your inboxes, i'm just
trying to give valve a heads up instead of raging about locked server
side fps sucks :(
