Server requirements, will this work???
Currently I have a VPS with 852 megs of memory, root access and 30 gigs free harddrive space. On average the server has 317 megs free memory. The operating system is Linux, CentOS I think. According to Vbulletin server loads, the server is running at an average of 0.63, 0.58 and 0.49%.

Right now I am running all of this on the server: 2 VBulletin forums and one SMF forum for Yoda. 2 wordpress sites and 1 basic HTML site. The server gets 650.0 GB of throughput a month. Out of that, all of the sites combined use about a gig a day. |
It's been our experience that web servers on game boxes cause considerable lag spikes, I wouldn't run them in the same place.

SRCDS is ALL about CPU. What's the processor in the box?

Instead of 16 players, how about a 12 or 14 player server? Back in the days of quakeworld, server admins knew that players took up exactly X amount of memory. I think it was like 2 - 3 megs for every player that was connected. This helped admins get an idea of how much memory the server needed. But then again, back in those days memory was $2 a meg. I know you said its all about the CPU, but surely the mod takes "some" memory? If so, how much are we talking about? Over the past few months I have been thinking of upgrading my hosting package to a gig of memory, more HD space an more bandwidth limits. This would only be about $15 more a month. Currently, one of my forums gets 1.4+ million page views a month. I would rather have the resources there "before" I need them. So I need to take the game server into consideration before I upgrade the hosting package. Quote:

TIAS (Try It And See).
Although I wouldn't without more ram. |
VPS? as in Virtual Private Server?
I don't think you can run a SRCDS off of a Virtual Server. But if you already have the server, give it a try. RAM wise, it doesn't take much. The head guy at SRCDS.com has run like 4 or 5 servers of a box at once with a gig of ram. |
