Hi Whisper, Is this specifically for HLDS or SRCDS or both? I have noticed it too, but more for HLDS. On both custom kernel compiles of 2.6.19 and using 'decent' hardware. It's quite strange. Albert may be able to answer this, how is the stats value calculated? Between two fixed points in time? Dynamically ?

make sure your machine that the server is on has port 27015 opened up on it's firewall. linux penguin wrote: -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] hi, I've forwarded the UDP 27015 port on my router but i cant see my server in steam's server list.

Re: [hlds_linux] Fluctuating Server FPS, but low CPU usage
Incorrect. We experienced a massive boost when going from 2.6.12 to 2.6.18. Both were running at 1000Hz. Please specify exactly which kernels perform better/worse than others and whether they were running at 1000Hz or not, instead of making incorrect generalized statements.

Re: [hlds_linux] Fluctuating Server FPS, but low CPU usage
Old kernel's perform better with HLDS than new ones. William Warren kirjoitti: the reason is the kernel devs changed the hz from 1000 to 250. Recompile your kernel with a higher hz. I would recommend using the latest kernel since older kernels have security issues or use a distro like Centos that uses the 2.6.9 kernel with all security updates backported but still uses 1000 hz in the kernel.. Hi, If you have X2 processors try the 2.6.16 kernel. I have about 70% of my servers running with AMD X2 processors and 2.6.16 kernel. Kernel's above 2.6.16 don't perform so good, don't really know why... I have the same settings, but the FPS is not even nearly as stable with example 2.6.19 compared to 2.6.16... One possible reason would be the "Multi-core scheduler support" which is added to the mainline kernel after 2.6.16 or 2.6.17. Try to disable that feature in the "processors types and features" and test it. I would like to know if that changed anything. -- Valtteri Hans Vos kirjoitti: DEPRE Gaetan wrote: Big problems with 2.6.18.
