cl_sleep?
« on: November 29, 2008, 05:38:39 PM »
What exactly does cl_sleep do.  I know if i set it to 0 I lock at 1000 fps and at 1 it's in the 500's at 2 300's and so on.  Just wondering if turning it up and lowering my fps has any benefits to other things?

cl_sleep controls the number of ms to 'sleep' after each frame. So, cl_sleep 3 will lock your max fps at 125 or so, but use 1/3 as much CPU as cl_sleep 0 (assuming it's maxed out in the first place).
