The machines are powerful enough, but Linux srcds is a pig and requires a lot more resources vs windows. I looked though my previous support tickets with linode, the machine I was on was a
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU L5420 @ 2.50GHz Which had just enough power for Linux srcds, with some 'hiccups'. Get ahold of support and see what they can do for you.

Linode VPSes are quite powerful and srcds should be smooth as butter. I've found disabling replay reduces the lag issue somewhat but it's still there. I've tried tinkering with rates and such and nothing makes a difference - I'm currently using: *// Rate Settings //* * * *// Frame rate limiter* *fps_max 600* * * *// Min bandwidth rate allowed on server, 0 == unlimited* *sv_minrate 0* * * *// Max bandwidth rate allowed on server, 0 == unlimited* *sv_maxrate 20000* * * *// Minimum updates per second that the server will allow* *sv_minupdaterate 10* * * *// Maximum updates per second that the server will allow* *sv_maxupdaterate 66* * * I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or there's an issue with srcds at the moment. I haven't worked with Source servers in a long time, so my memory is mostly haze.
