[Bugfix / Feature Request] Optimize the server (especially cpu load)

[T3RR0R15T]

One of our server with 32 players has 41% cpu load. With the old build 23 server it has only around 25%.

Anyone from the server admins has cpu load problems on a build 26 server too?

If i change it to 16 players it was much better, but not really fantastic.

Idk, if it is only our server, but someone (jitspoe, ViciouZ, Zorchenhimer, ) should optimize the server (especially the cpu load) for a full 16 players server and server with more than 16 players.
Thats an important bugfix / feature in my opinion, so i dont hope it rot on the feature vote list...




And no, thats not (only) for the speed server. I have tested some higher elim times, but it wasn't much better with it.

Odd.  I wouldn't think any of the changes would cause significantly more CPU usage on the server.  Maybe I did something stupid like include the debug build.  Could you compare your paintball2 and gamei386.so file sizes between build 23 and 26?

Guess it's something a little less obvious.  I'll have to run some profiling on it.  In the mean time, I've put it on the feature vote so it doesn't get forgotten: http://dplogin.com/dplogin/featurevote/feature.php?id=10199
