 That depends on what version of hlds you use and what pingbooster option.

 If you are using 3.1.1.0 there is a great differance between pingbooster
 and no pingbooster... at least with pingbooster 3... the latency are down
 to 7-9 ms with it on, without it it jumps up aprox 4-5x. (these are my
 numbers on my server)

 In 3.1.1.1 I did not get the same result, there is no real cpu jumpage as
 in *.0 and i did not see any real difference in the latency. perhaps 10 ms
 in my setup. I switched back to .0 due to massive critism from my
 regulars. they complained about the higher latency, plus some lagging
 issues that caused a sertain hit was registered as a miss. I should point
 out that I have not tested the latest versions of .1 out just yet. so they
 may have fixed some of the issues I stopped when the first 1b was
 released.

I have ran several tests with 3.1.1.0 and 3.1.1.1 with 32 players and there
are huge latency difference's. I highly recommend sticking with 3.1.1.0. The
big issue however is no commercial DoD users can play on a 3.1.1.0 server.

One way to kill DoD...

Hey guys I was just wondering if it is better to use a ping booster or
not.  Right now the pings are good but I am wondering if I use a ping
booster, will it get better?  Does it hog up a lot more resources? CPU
cycles? MEM?  I keep hearing people using ping boosters but I'm not sure
if it's really that beneficial to use it.  I currently run a dual athlon
2400 box w/1GIG RAM and RedHat Linux 8.0 OS.  Thanks for any feedback
