ThaDipshit Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hello y'all!I dont know if you have experienced all the lagg as of late, but the TF2 Green Arena server is getting worse by the day. At first it was the best server I had ever played on, including the KotH server, but that one has become unplayable for me now. So I switched to the Arena server, which used to be as great as all the other servers, but now it too has become unplayable! I dont know if this is a serverside issue, or just an issue I have, but if you type net_graph 2, you can see something called: lerp. If this "lerp", for I have no idea what it is, or does, turns yellow, it laggs, and I have this a lot. A LOT! And it's pretty much only on the TF2Green server.I just wanted to point this out, but I think someone should take a look at it, because I know I'm not the only one lagging through this magic "lerp".Thanks in advance!

Silver Dot Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 (edited) The Mr. Green servers all lag, it's the replay. I know this from experience because whenever I join a replay server it's laggy as fuck and when I'm in a server that doesn't allow replays, I'm fine.

Botervloot Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 (edited) We are aware of this problem. It's only a matter of time before it'll be fixed. It has something to do with memory leaks, and the server will be receiving a new set of memory soon.I think Clavus could address the situation better.

TheGreenGrasshopper Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 yup everyday atleast twice someone asks for a restart. And yeah for some reason I blame replay too like silver, the replay feature once stopped working and the lag stopped for msot people. It was very peculiar. Quote Link to comment
Half-Minute Man Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 (edited) Yes, it's horrible. KotH server is fucked to the bone, really unplayable.Arena is still playable but it gets worse and worse, eventually it will probably be the same as the KotH server. My good friend Darkstar is aware of this problem, he sometimes restarts the server, but it doesn't help a lot. I really hope this can be resolved as I find it an enjoyable server. Except for when [DC] AC Milan is around, he's an ass. Edited August 12, 2011 by Half-Minute Man Quote Link to comment

Clavus Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Let me tell you how it is.When you start a TF2 server, it takes about 400MB of RAM when it's fully running.However, over several (active) hours, it doubles to 800MB (we even had one reaching 1GB once) because of some stupid memory leaks which I think are Valve's fault. Restarting / crashing resets the whole parade at the beginning.And that's about it. We're still waiting for the RAM upgrades. Quote Link to comment
Mathematic Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Make a timer which restarts the server every 10 minutes! Quote Link to comment
Darkstar Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Make a timer which restarts the server every 10 minutes!That would make the arena server 24/7 Watchtower. PLCP would be 24/7 Dustbowl, and im not sure about koth. Quote Link to comment
Mathematic Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 After every map the server restarts, and the server starts with a random map.Win! Quote Link to comment
Half-Minute Man Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 So... It will take a time?What's the expected date for the RAM upgrade to come in? Quote Link to comment

Half-Minute Man Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 So yeah, the RAM update has been done. But we, players, still experience a lot of lag/lerp. To make clear what I mean:lerp is yellow. I do not know what lerp is but every time it's yellow it stutters and becomes unplayable (what other people call lag) Quote Link to comment
Ywa Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 net_graph 5 gives more info. And I told Clavus already that more memory wouldn't fix the problem. Quote Link to comment

Half-Minute Man Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 If it isn't the lack of memory, then what is it. You are the only server who has it this bad. Quote Link to comment
