server hunkmeg allocation does it make a difference ?

Recommended Posts

a topic of conversation has come up in the etpub forums where someone mentioned "server" hunkmeg allocation .

 

now i was aware of client side allocation but not server side.

 

i've asked my server provider what i'm running at atm. i'm running a 40 slot server . if i find out i'm running a lower hunkmeg rating than what is recommended would raising it make a BIG difference ?

 

the link that was supplied on the etpub forums was to a Jolt.co.uk site ...... so Fozzer you should now about this already and be able to comment ;) :lol:

afaik all jolt clanservers have this in their start file - +set com_hunkmegs 64 this is more than enough for anything you want to run:

 

to check things out yourself you will need to download putty here click me and set it up as per instructions .. if you rent a jolt server the login is the same as your ftp login and pass.

 

a how to use putty guide can be found here click me its sof2 specific but take a look and you will get the drift:

 

the commands that you will use most often after you log in are:

 

cat /proc/cpuinfo .... displays info re cpu

 

cat /proc/meminfo .... displays info re memory

 

ls .... lists the directory you are currently in

 

ls -la .... lists all files and their permissions

 

ps axu .....displays everything that is running % wise re cpu and memory

 

ps x ..... shows what servers are running by server number

 

kill xxxx ...... kills that specific server(xxxx = the server number)

 

./start_xxxx .... will restart the killed server (xxxx = the name of your start file)

 

btw is your clan forum down ?

oops ive already asked clanservers to check on my hunkmeg allocation. they came back saying its set between 64 - 72 . but they have now changed it to 128 for me, lol .

 

i take it 128 will improve things fozzer ??

 

regarding the website..... yeah its down at the moment. the guy that letting us use a server for the webite told us it wouldn't be available anymore so weve lost the site . he's looking for a replacement.

 

thankfully i've had 100 mb of freespace for FTP downloads with clanservers for the fast downloads of the 2 campaigns we got.

 

dont think there be enough space to add a website in all that though . not up on that end of things. how much space does a website take anyway ? nothing fancy just forums like this ??

never take for granted that more = better .. a hell of a lot do ( like the members of other anti cheat sites :P )

any improvement will be hardly noticeable .. re forums ..aint got a clue .. but i can moderate them great :D

This is an interesting topic, I just ask my provider what ous is set at...

 

We started getting lag recently, although I atribute it to the PB update problesm that are going on.

 

I increased my PERSONAL Hunkmegs but didnt really see any difference....So that is why Im leaning towards the PB being the culprit...

 

Will let you know what my provider says.

My provider said pretty much same as above.

My server WAS set for 128 and he felt that that was more than enough...but he bumped it up anyway :D
