Re: [hlds_linux] ticrate, pingboost, rates - need help

(HLDS, _not_ SOURCE)

I have a "problem" with one of my newest linux machines. (I do not know if it 
is a problem)

I've tried all pingboosts from 1-3, and sys_ticrate from 2000 to 1. rcon 
stats reports an FPS of ~240-250 no matter what settings I'm using.

I have other servers running 999 FPS with no problem at all.


stats
CPU   InOut   Uptime  Users   FPSPlayers
 6.00  0.00  0.00   2 0  245.52   0


The kernel I'm using is 2.6.26-1-amd64 #1 SMP, on a DELL 6850 (Quad intel 
dualcore 12GB RAM)

Different methods to service the timers that drive it. 1 uses an 
alarm() call, 2 uses a select()
and 3 uses a method that processes each one as they come in.

The engine runs fast with a pingboost of 3 and a ticrate over 1000 
due to the way the engine divides/multiplies the ticrate
to step frame time.

You really don't need highres timers on a machine anyways, because 
when hrtimers are enabled in the kernel the error rate is increased
and you see significant jitter doing sleeps.. the long term solution 
is to write a sleep function that uses the rdtsc of the cpu and then 
you get ultra accurate sleeps (you'll need a reference clock though, 
like open /dev/hpet or use ntpd :-)

-TOS doesn't do anything anymore, not too many routers examine the 
type of service bit. A pingboost of 2 uses
select() based boosting, which on older linux kernels uses the 
'jiffies' routine. I wouldn't expect it to be that accurate.

Serverside choke is also caused by scheduler latency. Running high 
slot counts increase the pressure on the scheduler, so you will see a 
little loss while
it's waiting to process interframe data. You should try adjusting the 
thread priority to SCHED_RR with a thread time of 50 or so.

Setting server to 1000fps (sys_ticrate 1000) is so stupid due to choke on
full server.

Ok thats easy.. for tickrate 1000 servers you should not use a maxrate
less than 5 (on source, no idea whats it on goldsrc).
Choke means not enough bandwidth to transmit all packets. And maxrate
(server) / rate (client) limits this bandwidth virtually.
So you just test it by connecting to the server, watching your choke
in the net_graph and then raising the maxrate/rate step by step till
the choke is gone (choke <= 5 is fine).

anyway you should raise your minrate a bit.

sys_ticrate 2000 seems to be the limit before the ingame clock goes wild.

I don´t think so. Try ticrate 1000 and then ticrate 1 you will see that
the server are even better runs. You can test it with:

And why does the game runs faster at pingboost 3 with 3500 ticrate...
because the limit are 1000?? omg

How would you run a ticrate 3500 or 1 server when it is a 1000 Hz
server?

And the link you posted use rcon stats.

Maybe you should also read this:

I don´t think so. Try ticrate 1000 and then ticrate 1 you will see that
the server are even better runs. You can test it with:
http://fpsmeter.fragaholics.de/
And why does the game runs faster at pingboost 3 with 3500 ticrate...

Hi,
 your ticrate are to low i think.. i use with pingboost 2 the ticrate 1.
You can also use pingboost 3 with ticrate 2500 but not higher.
Do you use hires-timer?
What OS and kernel do you use?

Or you could just try doing +alias sys_tickrate "blah" in the command line
(will that work?)

Customers can change the server.cfg so this really is void.  But if you
put it in the autoexec.cfg file, it might just work.  Most customers
don't think to make changes there.  I personally haven't tested this,
but it might work.  The only other way is the make the file read only.

Hello,

you can try and install hotsanic (http://hotsanic.sourceforge.net/). It will
give you a better overview what really happens on your system. Install at
least the modules traffic, system and netstat.

Also follow this tutorial for a good kernel:
http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=486424

Most important stuff is the 1000 Hz patch and the scheduler settings.

After you have a well configured kernel, don't use taskset or anything to
force the processes to a specific CPU, the scheduler will do for you very
well.

Best regards
Ronny

Can someone explain the following, or if it is just shite coding on valves
part:

* I run a server that has a dual core pentium 3.4GHz processor and runs 2 x
100 tick 18 man CSS servers.
* It has the kernel compiled at 1000
* My startup line has +fps_max 600 (will largely hold 333fps)

I can look at the server cpu usage, memory usage and CSS "stats" all in real
time.

Now why the hell does a server drop from 333fps to as low as 10fps? What
causes this?

The CPU usage gets no higher than 60% (one core for the process - other is
at 1-5% if the other server is empty), but the drops can happen at 60% or
anywhere below, so the CPU usage seems to have no bearing on this.

The memory usage does not change - I have memory that is not currently in
use, so this seems not to be a factor either.

I have no swap being used, the server is regularly rebooted to clear any
memory that is not released (although as mentioned I have spare) and all
servers except literally the ones to run the server have been stopped (but
as mentioned CPU usage is never over 60%, and system use is negligable)

I am totally confused as to why the fps will not stay above 100 when the
hardware is clearly not struggling!!

Would it be better to force is to use the 486 process instead of the 686??

Anyone know if that works? OR maybe you have your own way of locking the
sys_ticrate command for hl1mods?

i am not too sure that specifying the ticrate in the command line locks
it... Try this :)

+sys_ticrate 200 +alias sys_ticrate "wait"

The Kernel we are using is precompiled and runnning on x86.
We found out, that it runs on 100 Hz. We are using the "hlds_amd" binary.

If nobody is connected to the server, the frames are constant about 100 (+/-
0.1 frame). Today we played on it with 10 people and we typed "rcon stats" a
few times to see how its working and the frames ranged between 50 and ~380

What architectures are Debian and your kernel running with, x86 or amd64?
Did you compile it your own or do you use precompiled one? Does it run with
1000 Hz? And which binary are you using, hlds_amd, hlds_i686, or hlds_amd64?
