[hlds_linux] Choke & Engine CPU High
This is a multi-part message in MIME format. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Is anyone else seeing large spikes in choke, and Game Engine shows 99% CPU usage even though ssh top shows the engine only using 20-30%? We did not have this problem before December, was there an update that has caused this? I know we tried older kernels and do not see any difference. There is not problem with the network, as the other games that have always ran on the servers, run smoothly. Does anyone have suggestions or ideas? -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Is there any plans to update this, or does the dev team know about it? I really only care for one server but i'd rather not pay 160 a month to get a machine to run it when my hardware should be perfectly acceptable From: "W0kk3L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Re: Rediculous CPU usage Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2005 22:45:15 +0100 Reply-To: hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com Same here... The loads has practicly doubled since the last updates. However the pingtimes in-game stayed the same. So the load isn't noticable in-game. Nevertheless it's freaking out our monitoring software. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux

Hi Will, Much appreciated, thank you very much. Also thank you to all others that helped :) Regards Ryan - Original Message - From: "Will" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, December 14, 2005 8:13 PM Subject: Re: [hlds_linux] Recompiling the kernel Hi Ryan, I roughed out a guide some time ago that might get you started. It was detailed on Fedora Core 3, but I'm sure you're smart enough to figure where to futz with things to make it fit your system. By the way I believe fedora core has a setting of 1000hz in order to make the desktop environment more responsive, the trade off is more CPU usage. The guide I wrote detailed how to reduce the Hz setting in order to *lower* cpu usage.

Re: [hlds_linux] Re: Re: Re: Rediculous CPU usage
That's great, however I think this is about the ridiculous CPU usage and not what monitoring software is used for the CPU usage. When the CPU gets that high, the tickrate in the server itself drops dramatically into the 5-10 range and it is UNPLAYABLE. There is a rats nest of unnecessary calls in the Source engine. Perhaps we should stick to the topic at hand, start you own "cpu usage application thread" if you wish.
