Re: [hlds] TF2 Long Map Change
1-2GB of ram per a server? Our tf2 servers never go above 500MB allocated (350~ is in use), and they are stock maps with long uptimes (around 1 mins) :p Running debian. Cannot say the same thing about L4D(2) servers though. They like ram.

Re: [hlds] TF2 Long Map Change
In my experience, when it comes to shared game server hosting, slow map loads usually mean lack of free ram. Game servers don't write that much to a disk (log files and such) to bog it down to a point that it will take 2 minutes to load a map. I mean after updates when 4 of my servers start (at the same time) on a 160GB HD with 8 mb cache they all load in under 25 secs. But ram however, is more of an issue. Say your server host runs only 2 (unlikely situation) servers per core and the server has 4 cores, that's over 2 gigs ram on start up and that grows with longer uptime, more plugins, and especially when maps don't change much (idle server. server empty most of the day). One of my idle servers is running the simplest map ever and less than base sourcemod plugins yet the ram usage is over 1GB now heh (last map change over 600 minutes ago). Anyway, that's just what I noticed. On Sun, Feb 14, 2010 at 11:56 PM, Cc2iscooL wrote: > I kind of doubt it'll help.

Re: [hlds] TF2 Long Map Change
I kind of doubt it'll help. It may change the load times a little, maybe a second or two at best, but it's more likely that something is eating the disk I/O or there's a problem with the box itself. I'd either request a box change or a refund for slow map loading times and unsatisfactory support. If it were a "bug in the server" it would be all over the mailing list right now, and that hasn't happened since Valve fixed the stats issue...but technically this doesn't mimic that problem at all. I had good luck with Branzone when I was with them, but stay away from their 128 FPS servers. They play like gameservers.com servers.

Re: [hlds] TF2 Long Map Change
Perhaps the server's disk is stuffed / too slow / overloaded (reading the map from hard disk etc).

Re: [hlds] TF2 Long Map Change
If you can, disable all plugins etc and see if anything speeds up. Try a vanilla config file too.

Yeah I google searched and came across that what you describe. I don't load any banned ip's from a cfg so this won't be the issue, I use sourcemod to manage my bans which, at the moment is empty.
