have you tried to bind the running server to only one core ? I did that yesterday, and it works better..

Hi, I've created a new kernel with the 2.6.21-rc6 using the dynamic ticks and high timer options, which really improved the performance of my server. I need to run the servers at 1000 FPS because it appeals to customers. The hardware is dual quad-core xeon 2.66ghz with 8gb fully-buffered memory. The FPS is generally at 980-1000, but sometimes it drops to around 500. This happens with only one, completely idle server running on the machine. Perhaps i don't need to care about this, but i'd really like to know what can cause these drops to happen? Apparently the CPU is able to keep it at a steady 1000 FPS, and since there's nothing else running i don't see why it should drop to ~500. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
