-> ->How long is valve gonna sit around with their dicks in their ->hands thinking ->we are either making this up or just not caring? I cant afford to wait 6 ->months for valve to fix this. If they are getting low cpu usage on their ->hardware with hlds_l then by god give us the specs down to the ->make/model of ->everything and lets see if they are bs'n us. -> ->You guys at valve gonna fix this at all? I know you read this list. We are ->calling you out. We want an answer on this. -> ->PS - one last thing all you small time server admins (like ->myself) out there ->making all your money off cs servers. 3 words. Class Action Lawsuit. If my ->business fails because of this and I cant find customers quick enough to ->make money still then i will look into this. My wife works at a lawfirm. froma previous email from alfred: These are the 3 machines we actively test with. None have revealed anywhere near the CPU load other people report.
