Re: [hlds] Windows 2003 server lag issue, any solutions jet ?

Hi

 I don't think the hardware is the problem, server runs smoothly and nice
about half day,then
it start suddenly lag. Rebooting server and changing level to same map,
server full 28/28 , no problems.
Plenty of RAM free, processor load never over 85%, even in peaks...
Something leaking

yup.. hlds itself has always beeen kinda iffy over the mid twenties in
users.  Certain hardware performs better then others in those instances, but
overall your kinda screwed.
Those that that have system clocks at 10 get away with it more then those at
15. Your only option there is to use the various mmtimer tricks, of course
that can lead to other instabilities or inconsistencies in performance.
Also you ought to disable hyperthreading, I've seen less lag under tfc with
HT disabled many win3k boxes.  That's been my experiances with various tfc
instances; it might be slightly different if your running cs or some other
mod, but I doubt it.

/2cents.

Hi

 I was celebrating too early. Lag issue is here
still. I binded process and also binded corresponding network adapter
to same CPU ( intfiltr.exe / w2k3 resource kit ). That seems so reduce
latency about 2-4 ms and stabilize it littlebit, but lag issue won't
disappear.
I Have 3 20/20 dod servers and 1 28/28 server and no problems with 20/20
servers,
so there is something with bigger servers ...

Regards,
Snagu

 Hi,

 That's seems to help,thank you very much for
 your tip. Setting processor affinity (thread bind)
 so that 1:st HLDS use processor 0 and 2:nd
 HLDS process use processor 1 helped.

 Snagu

   Hi
  
No I Havent't bind processes for CPU (CPU0, CPU1)
   I will try that, hope that helps. But still I don't understand
   why booting solves all the problems ( restarting process, not
server ).
   Anyway I let you now, if binding helps.

Have you bound the servers to each CPU? Or letting it handle it on
its
own?
I been running a different kind of gameserver, but when I didn't
bind
the prosesses it swapped between both CPUs and thus creating lag.
Just
 a
tought. Im running 2003 server too btw.

 I had earlier Win 2000 Server with same configuration, no problems.
I
upgraded to Win 2003 std server (clear installation) and problems
started. Also Xeon processors emulate double processor
(hyper-threading), so there is one thread for each HLDS. I think the
problem is somewhere else.
