hello people!, well, im running a server with windows server 2008 R2, with a C2Q q9550 CPU, and 8gib of ram and a 2x320 gib raid 0.

The "problem" is that the task manager always says that the srcds consuption is in 0%, even if both l4d1 and l4d2 servers are full....

Is this ok, or there is a bug with SRCDS and 2008r2 ? because the others programs that i run shows the consuption..

thank you in advance!

L4D2 is both aware of multiple processors and uses them properly IIRC

It very well could be correct.

but for example, some time ago i was running 2 servers: 1 l4d server versus, and 1 l4d2 server versus (8 slots both). i was running those servers on a PC with windows server 2003 and E5200 cpu and 2gib of ram.
When both servers where full, the cpu usage went to about 30%


Now, with windows server 2008 r2, q9550, and 8gb of ram and the raid 0 setup, and the SAME 2 servers with all slots full, the CPU usage is at 0%....


is this correct? if its correct, i will be extremely happy, but it seems a bit strange to be true...

L4D2, maybe.
L4D1, no... somethings wrong...

Sorry! But yea, it appears something is wrong L4D1 is nice to resources, but its not that nice.

As far as I can tell we are not having this issue.
