  This is happening for us as well. The server might be using
 2% of the
  CPU but everyone's ping is about 4 times what they'd get in a 1.6
  server. Even with only 5 people in the server.

  I just updated my CSS Dedicated Server, and while it no longer
  crashes when full, now for some unknown reason all the pings go
  haywire up and down like a yo-yo.  I mean like 4-5X normal pings.
 
  My Server never used above 20% CPU, but it acted like it
 was at 100%
  CPU and starving for more power.
 
  Weird, the previous version did not do this with the same player
  load.

Exactly !!  4 to 5 times their normal ping, and it can surge higher at times
also.

Thank you for the reply, it is always comforting to know you are not alone with
a new problem, especially one as odd as this one!

I kept dropping my player counts, but it did not help, and the server CPU usage
was tiny, however the server acted as if it had completely run out of CPU.

If anyone hears anything about this, or if Valve comments on this, please post
here.

Does Valve read our problems from this List, or is there some better Forum/list
to make Valve aware of Dedicated Server Problems??

Thanks again to all who replied here.

My beta server was using up to 25mbps or so for 20 players and choking
the pipe that my paying customers use. It is shut down till this is
fixed so that my colo provider doesn't throw me out and I don't lose all
my customers.  :(

So that is what is happening, we are essentially launching DOS attacks on our
servers and ISPs by running the latest Patched SRDS !!!

Makes sense why my ISP e-mailed me last night to ask why I was suddenly using
so much bandwidth !!

Thanks for the reply and info,

Strange, with 28 players I was using just over 1mb total in AND out
combined.  To be exact, about 820k/sec out and 390k/sec in.

Could you email me offlist your server.cfg please. Does this happen as
soon as people are on your server or is it more random than that?

My CS Source beta server went crazy again, spiking well over 30mbps, and
it is not clear when it is happening. As I watch right now, the server
is full, but it is behaving.
