That, and the fact that the S390 processing complex wouldn't have enough
horsepower to run 500 HLDS servers (unless they were like 4 player servers).
And, assuming at least 64MB per HLDS instance, I'm guessing that your S390
wouldn't have enough physical memory either.  Last spec I read showed the
S390 maxing out at 32GB physical memory.

Oh, and btw, there is the *small* matter of getting an i386 binary running
on an S390. ;)

Well, I look at it this way, if that is how many VAC *did* catch, just
imagine how many it hasn't...

Running FreeBSD without any pingbooster, but with the kernel option
HZ=1000, the effect is somehow the same as using pingbooster...

| By removing player models from the field of vision that you cannot see you

(the
| effect you get by a tilerendering card like Kryo-2, just to a lesser
degree).
| The vidcard not having to draw players you cannot see will increase the
fps in
| certain situations.

except that drawing models is handled by your 3D hardware where as C-D
"clipping" is using your primary CPU...  Vidcards are very good at drawing
lots of objects even if they shouldn't be visible.

|
| I have no idea, crappy settings or viddrivers? A bug in the C-D software?
| Personally I get 40-50fps 800 res on my Celeron 450/Savage 2k system, with
&

| Obviously something is wrong with your setup & C-D combination.

i saw a definite drop in fps and so have many many people.  it's a worthy
sacrifice however :)
