That would be great, though I havent cracked open orangebox yet, but im guessing you would probably make it work for srcds as well? > The server's play quality is still steady, i get > ~100fps in heavy action at 66tic, which despite what some people may > say is completely impossible to differentiate from 1000fps. Im guess you are talking about serverside FPS? 100 FPS seems low to me. All my servers are 500 max. and drops in steps like 333, 250, 200, 166, 125 and similar, but I still have "perfect" 100tickrate up until about 16 players, after that the engine takes a lot more hits and the tickrates degrades a lot at times, but the FPS is doing about the same FPS drops... especially with deathmatch plugins and stuff. Im working on some monitoringscripts to make it easier for me to spot where and when issues accrue. For the record I use a stripped Debian etch, 32bit, non-tickless, 1000hz, preemptive and have stripped just about everything from the kernel not need on the particular gameserver.
