t: Re: [hlds] Left 4 Dead dedicated servers
I ran 2 3.0 Dual Core Xeon boxes when TF2 came out. I could only get a
single 24 man tf2 server on each CPU, and the load was something insane like
90% - 95%. It was horrible. We switched to an oct core opteron and saw an
improvement, but we were still getting
architecture is
where it's at. People are running full servers off a single C2D quad without
any lag. Simply can't be done with outdated processors...

I really wonder where this difference in CPU load comes from...
Our config:
Intel Xeon Qcore @ 2.33Ghz - per full TF2 server around 70-80% on a core.
Tick 66, FPS ~250.

I ran a TF2 server on my dual quad core server and I never had to dedicate a
core to it. I really don't think it'll use more than a 24 player TF2 server.
They never said that, only that it would use more than TF2...
