TF2 only requires 30hz sleeps (100/250hz kernels).. it doesn't require ultra accurate nanosleeps. Lowering HZ is also good overall, it reduces cacheline bouncing and other erratic behavior. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
