Edge100X, On Windows 2003, what it's calling "PF Usage" is mislabeled; it's actually the commit charge, which is the total amount of space that all processes on the server have requested. Not all of this memory will actually be used by the processes after they request it, so you may not ne...

Edge100x, Thank you for the quick reply. As usual, your posts are concise yet thorough, and on point. Very helpful. 4. How do you setup mail service? This can be very complicated to do correctly. I would not recommend hosting your own mail server, in favor of 3rd party hosting such as Google. If you...

I am in the process of testing running a web server on my VDS to host a game community website, email server, and provide fast DL. I already own the domain name and it’s registered with Godaddy. Current OS is Windows 2003 server. So far I have WAMP Server 64-bit up and running (Apache 2.4.2 – Mysql ...

1. How are you assessing per-core CPU usage from the screen shot?

2. Could you please comment on Page File usage and how it should be interpreted?

Not too long ago I talked to a customer at great length trying to troubleshoot that very problem, but I don't recall the outcome. I'm not sure if that was you perhaps, but I can spend some time later tracking it down again if it will help. TimeX, Thank you for your offer to track down the issue. I ...

Thank you for the additional details about your servers and OS.

Your graphs look ok. We run ours pretty hard and have no issues. 3 core VDS with 1gb upgraded memory. Runs: 4 L4D2, 1 TS3, and 5 Procons. Hi Major, Thank you for the feedback. It's helpful to know what others are running on comparable servers. Not to get off-topic here, but if you run L4D2 versus s...

Edge100x, I have a a followup question about memory resources and use after taking a closer look at Task Manager. Attached is screen showing resource use on my 3-core VDS with 3 full L4D2 servers running. Can you explain how to interpret the page file use versus physical memory (total, available, an...

Edge100x,

Thank you for such a quick and thorough reply! The service at NFO is really outstanding.

Best regards,

When to Increase the amount of Physical Memory? My 3-core VDS currently has 3 Gb of RAM with 50% of that used by three L4D2 game servers and the OS (Win 2003 Server). Each game server currently uses close to or just over 300Mb or RAM. If memory use for each incremental L4D2 server is linear, I shou...
