I'm quite impressed with the CPU load. I expected it to be worse. Unfortunatly due to the Linux bug, that box can only do 4 servers, but it runs around 55% on a C2D, but can't remember which type.
On my Xeon machine the 5 L4D servers consume about the same as 1 26slots TF2 server.

What are people's perceptions so far in terms of the performance and memory impact of hosting l4d servers, especially compared to our other games? What numbers of full servers have people been able to host on what hardware/os combinations? Internally, when we tried to push as many servers as possible on 8-core xeons, we tended to run out of ram before we ran out of CPU. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David A.

How is CPU usage calculated by the game server? - Dave -- Dave Parker Utica College Integrated Information Technology Services (315) 792-3229 Registered Linux User #408177 _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
