Re: [hlds_linux] Laggy Server
Are you running HLGuard? If so, turn off the WH block, that did it for me. I'm running 2 servers on my 1.2 Ghz AMD machine and have had no problem at all before last month when I upgraded HLGuard to the latest one. Before that I had 3 servers on it, but I did as you, tested lots of things. Anyway, after setting hlguard 4 off (WH off) the CPU and load dropped drastically and all the ping spikes where gone. AFAIK VAC handles WH pretty good now?? HIH -Bj0rN Phillip Meents wrote: Ok, im running 2 16 person CS servers, and 1 20 person CS server on a p4 1.7GHZ machine. The 2 16 person servers are empty 90% of the time. The people on the 20 person server experience lag spikes every couple of minutes. We have watched the top for the machine and there is no processor overloading and no problems with RAM, as there is 100mb of free ram. There is about 30GB free on the hard disk. I have also set maxrate to , and minrate to 2000. I have run out of things to check. The network has been fine as it is a full 100mbit connection to the network, and with the other 2 servers just not being used, its not like there is bandwidth problems. All of the servers are running on separate ip addresses. The machine is running on a RH 7.2 install, pretty much stripped to the basics. Anyone have any ideas of other stuff I could check. Thanks.

RE: [hlds_linux] Laggy Server
Internet server, or LAN server? If internet server, what is the size of the internet pipe?

Just because you have a 100mb drop doesn't mean the network isn't having problems. We moved to a crappy network once **cough**CapitalInternet**cough** and we would have super low pings, but then huge spikes and rolling hills on the net graph about every 5-10 minutes. Some networks just aren't good enough for games. Moving the servers to a better DC fixed the problems. We spent over twice as much now, but definatly worth being at a quality DC. Unless, of course your not colo'n it, and then ignore my email and try to give a better description next time ;) But I have a feeling your on a saturated network.
