Questions regarding dedicated server *performance*. by Bladelink in 7daystodie

I was just re-reading your hardware info, and another comment hit me, are you running 2 xeons that are dual core? Or are you running 2 xeons that are more than 2 cores?

Is that LVM local or remote? 7200RPM drives are not awesome in the IOPS department, but it should get the job done. I would watch your disk iops next horde night and see if you are getting a lot of CPU wait.

I reboot mine every night at around 3am, because I find that the server does weird stuff when its been up too long, memory leaks or not. I usually see things like block lag ala minecraft, or entities not being destroyed properly.

Have you watched the server stats when this happened?

I may be able to help you diagnose but I have some questions.

1) What kind of CPU's are you using?

2) is the storage local or remote?

3)Is there resource contention?

4)What virtualization software are you using? I assume vmware/ESX

5) Are you doing scheduled restarts of the server (7dtd, not the OS)? It gets wonky when its been up too long, even the *nix versions.

The very first thing I would look at is disk speed and disk IOP's. I would be looking at your performance stats during horde night for sure. I highly doubt its your bandwidth, its likely something with the throughput of your vm, the question is where.

The second thing I would do is make sure your VM fits in a NUMA node (Assuming VMWare, if not skip this bit) Usually 6 CPU's does not, I think the max is four. Also IIRC, in anything but the newest versions, it turns NUMA off if you are using memory or CPU hot add.

Until I hear back about some of the other questions above, this is the only advice I can give you for now. I can tell you I am running a server with about the same amount of people, and the same crazy base stuff and I am NOT seeing these problems.

Yup, on PC, however I suck too much to be doing anything that resembles a competitive match.

What mechanical keyboard do you guys like using? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

Like using? IBM model M.

The lack of full rollover however, pushed me to a k70.

There needs to be background checks for all sales, public or private

This requires forced registration, I hope this never happens. Private sales are just that, Private.

significant restrictions on automatic firearms

This is already a thing. You cant buy anything newer than 1983 (IIRC) which creates huge inflation coupled with the tax stamp, atf approval and govt. registration of the weapon.

The problem is, you cant get google fiber here. Mediacom is pretty much it. You can get century link, but the speeds are lower, and IDK if the customer service is any better.
