Re: [hlds_linux] 99% in rcon stats, but not in top
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Well, I did find the culprit for FPS fluctuations: apparently, srcds does not like you typing these commands straight into console. Typing them from rcon gives me a VERY consistent 500FPS with low CPU usage (different kernel now) and 6 bots. Same effect on both Windows and Linux on same hardware. So the moral of the story is: don't type anything in local console :D Dan E <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I can't check right now (in a few hours or by tomorrow I can let you know), but I did do some testing on a fresh 2k3 Ent SP2 install.

Re: [hlds_linux] 99% in rcon stats, but not in top
The CPU-usage reported by srcds is kernel_hz/100 * actual_cpu_usage. Normally game-hosts run at 1000Hz, so you'll get 10x the actual value. And then it caps at 100%. So even at 10% CPU-usage you'll get 100% reported by srcds. The new orangebox srcds doesn't do this, however.
