Server sizing question - nonenone - 04-09-2012
Hi,
I have an Intel Xeon E5420 2.5G with 16Gb of RAM sitting on a 2Gb synchronous pipe.
How many players can the server manage, taking CPU RAM and network connectivity into account?
The server runs nothing else.
Network related server.log
//sv_maxrate 1000000 // limits client connections to this rate in bytes/seconds
This is about 8Mbits/s if I am not mistaken (possibly I am mistaken). Is this per client or total per server?
Are the IP packets on port 2600 TCP or UDP? Is 2600 the only port that has to be open?

You only need to open 26000 UDP. It's 26000, not 2600 as you say in your post.
As for performance and rate, I'll let server admins answer that one. But since you already have the hardware, the best way to know is to test it!
