Server Performance Problems

Please post your server config...

 

 

Off the top of my head I'd say you probably have too high of a maxrate so that when only 4 are playing your already out of bandwidth. Not sure though, post your config and lets go from there.

When somebody connects I get usually like 500 - 800 ms inside this message :

 

Hitch warning: 658 msec frame time

 

The hitch warning is just the Cpu taking a bit of time to "think" nothing major to worry about and nothing you can do but to upgrade the Processor. 600ms isn't bad at all. I'm running a overclocked 500 and i get hitch warnings in the 1000-3000ms range..

 

I too would be interested in knowing what you have the maxrate set at.. I'm on a dsl 640/272 line and I run a 6 player nf Duels server and a 6 player NF FFA server (occasionally) with the maxrate at 7700 and haven't had any problems.

Hi all,

I don't know if there is any fix for this but I have the following problem. I wun a Linux Server on an AMD Athlon 800 with 1GB of memory PC133. I have a cable modem line capable of 512 kb per sec. I connect from work to my server at home and everythis works fine. As soon as three other players connect the problems begin. The game seems to freeze and they get a lot of "Connection Interrupted" messages until someone looses connection and then the game starts working again. During the freeze all players have 999 ping but normally they have like 100-200 ping.

 

I tested the server with 19 bots spawned and everything worked fine as well.

 

I dunno if it's because of my line. I checked the stats With 3 players connected :

 

Network use 8.5 - 12 kb per sec

Processor use 12.9 - 25.3 %

Memmory use about 33 MBs

 

If anybody is having the same problem please help me.
