Instead of hiding the server_fps, it would be better to explain it in

The server FPS is simply cycles / time, where time is from
gettimeofday(), with some bounds on the minimum usleep so making the
usleep actually less will crank up the server FPS (but not the
simulation HZ, so the game isn't actually faster, for Source engine
games).
I think that part of the explanation Björn would be looking for is what
happens during a network frame and how it is different from what happens
during a tick (aka, simulation hz).
My impression is that a frame simply represents the server accepting
some UDP, determining whether it should run a tick, and then sleeping
until the next frame, but I am curious if there's more (or less) to it.
