CFWU>Spike Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 I have a athlon 2400+ server with 512mb Ram, on a 100mbp/s connection. With 20 people in the VC server it uses 50% cpu, with 26 people it uses 99.8% cpu. I have installed all the patches, the server is linux CentOS (red hat enterprise)
Vicer/Spitfire Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 Ok, so whats the problem? Its probably why your last topic was moved to trash. No problem provided..
Jani Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 athlon 2400+ isnt very powerful you want something like a p4 2.8ghz
littlewhitey Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 but why does it use so much cpu?99,8% Servers are meant to be powerful as most server apps, such as the MTA server, are cpu hungry And yeah, an Athlon 2400+ is powerful, its just that game servers are demanding
Si|ent Posted June 4, 2005 Posted June 4, 2005 Pre 0.5 servers didnt need anywhere near as much cpu, I suspect it's due to the encryption that we were forced to include in an attempt to combat those few who wished to ruin other peoples games by creating destructive or cheat enabled clients. The same thing increases strain on client machines and is probably responsible for the extra bandwidth required.
Guest Posted June 5, 2005 Posted June 5, 2005 Sometimes I wonder if that's such a fair trade... Especially as it was cracked (if thats the right term =\ ), like everything else.
Si|ent Posted June 5, 2005 Posted June 5, 2005 It was circumvented yes. Took four months rather than four hours however.
