ADMIN NOTICE: Lag

[Korrd]

As the lag appears to be caused by heavy Swapping of the hard disk, I have disabled the server's virtual memory.

I've been monitoring the server performance and so far there has been no lag since last reboot, but as I'm not in game right now, i cant check that from inside FL..

If you get bad lag, please report it.

I asked Firebird who was on at the same time ( or was it dark odity.. :S ) One of them had TWO computers running and had lag on neither.

It is often unplayable. And when a game is unplayable, it doesn't get played.

That doesn't tell us much nor does it help

Was there lag and were others affected by it ?

I'm playing with 2 computers at same time and since that curious "breakdown" - the one that only lasted one minute - I dont have any problems.

I've even tested downloading at the same time on one end and have no problems so far.

I think FL doest take that much bandwith on my end either.

Swapping makes things alot slower.

I know a server is not supposed to be running many services, but you could try and install a program to manage the memory better.

I'd suggest one that I use on every windows xp install - flawless.
If your interested, send me a PM.

I hope this fixes lag for good, a few nights ago I took on one fighter, and sometimes he would stop next to me, and I would shoot him several times with him taking no damage, then he would appear 1.5km away. Very frustrating as I was a dreadnaught with some heavy anti fighter firepower (no missiles, just Nomad turrets) and he got my shields down by the time he was at half armor. I don't know if 1 fighter is supposed to do that to one dreadnaught. : /

The curious breakdown was.... um... curious for me too.
I was watching the server at the time and FL just crashed for no reason, and reloaded automatically... I was like "WTF!?"...

After that, everything started working normally again.

I've been monitoring lag. Server side, it averages 50ms when 15 players are online, with peaks of 200, and lows of 20..
