Server resources
« on: November 05, 2008, 06:52:33 pm »
My server parameters: AMD Athlon 64 3000+, 2 GHz, 1 GB ram, win 2003 os, tremded: merc latest win version

The trem dedicated server need 20% with 0 player - 50% with 6 players.

Its normal? I want a new server with intel atom becouse low power use. But if tremded need this big capacity may it wont work. I want max 20 clients but i dont know how strong cpu need it. Pls. help me some advice.

You don't need a very powerful processor, or much memory, to run a server. Hell, I once got one running on an iBook G4 (1.2 GHz, 768 MB RAM), so no worries there.

Windows is not an *ideal* server platform. For one thing, compiling can be difficult unless your Cygwin/MinGW installation is set up ideally. Although you shouldn't have too much trouble just running a tremded.

One client usually takes up something between 15 and 25kb per second. So, for 20 clients with some overhead you need about a 500-1000 kbit line.

i run VPS(virtual private server) hosting, and linux can boot to 9mb RAM used with apache and xinetd running (centos default install). windows wont boot up idle to anything less than 128mb.

The memory isnt problem. Under windows the tremded use 10-50 MB. The only problem is the horrible cpu usage. So what i want to know how many % use tremded under linux? With 0 and 6, and 12 or more clients. And have i a real chance to run tremded under intel atom architect?

I'm running four tremdeds on an AMD 2400 (1.7ghz) which is WAY older than your Atom-based proc. I still have enough room to run other serivces, too.

Bottom line: Don't worry about it. Everything will work great.

As far as I'm aware /rate is in bytes, not bits. Each client can clobber between 5kB/s and 25kB/s ( Depending on sv_maxrate ofcourse )
