lag spikes every few minutes..

I am at witts end, i thought it was isp packet loss at first, but i dont think it is. we have dual opy 248's and 4 gigs of ram, our server is in a datacenter with a dedicated 3 meg connection, we only run a cod4 server, source server and quake 3 server, and none of them are used at the same time. the cod4 server gets these timeouts and lag spikes every few minutes, we are using less than 5 percent of our cpu power, and not even touching the ram, i dont know if i am missing a setting, or what...

at any rate, our server is

teamkaos.ath.cx:28960

any ideas?

try changing your

pb_sv_CvarWalk 1 or 0

in your pbsv file

Thanks i will give that a try, it was set to 4, i am guessing that was a bad thing?

[Ghost-Ryder]

no not a bad thing but most can't run it on 4.
My server had bad lag with 4 stop and go every minute.
What it does is check the clients cvar setting witch is what you want to do but if the server lags and no one will play on it then it wont do you any good anyways .
So better to have to set to 1 or even shut it off to give everybody a better experiance on your server.

Yeah, i completly shut it off, I dont know why the hardware wouldnt be able to handle it, it might be more of a bandwidth constraint tho, as our Colo package is just a 3M package to start with.
