Server perfomance?

Letsplayforfun · April 08, 2009, 06:13:38 PM

For about 5 days now, i've been getting lag, a PING doubling for EfUA, and a few crashes, which i had never had since the switch to the new server. Nothing on my client side seems to explain it. Am i the only one in this case, or does anyone else have noticed this lately?

I havn't noticed any issues.

Yes. It's a system recently implemented on all questsys that seem to be causing this when the server is up for more than 24 hours. (or so we believe).

We'll be fixing this shortly!

I seem to only have this issue when there are 40+ people on the server. During the day (USA time) when the player count is around 15-20 I have not had an issue.

Roundabouts where do you live, LPFF? What part of the US? Outside the US?

I'm in France, near Paris.

It's been worse for me as well, in Colorado, USA

Netherlands, Europe, Earth.

Pretty bad! I would be much obliged if this was fixed.

I have noticed increased lag lately as well, but didn't think to comment on it as I assumed it was my poor rig struggling with the 1.69 induced choking.

I was on a similar line of thinking.

Well, over the last 3 or 4 days, there WERE those tournement games that had 40+ players in the same area. Slowness then would have been difficult to avoid. That's one consideration...

I will pipe in and say it was strange. In Red Eleint, we had large scale events with no lag, and 30+ players participating along with hundreds of NPCs. Suddenly, the server begins to lag. Maybe we've overburdened it with resources.

I've been having lag.

this is in areas with no people, and where I am fighting Mist Ogres with Rethiek.

I ignore lag for the most part, But I have noticed an increase over the last week.

It would be so helpful if people would explain if they are getting latency issues (i.e. serverside lag, things pause and delay and you skip around and have trouble picking through conversations) vs. FPS-issues with their personal PC and our more intensive areas (i.e. the screen stutters for a moment, NWN as a whole feels choppy).

It absolutely boggles my mind that people who spend this amount of time on a computer don't seem to realize the difference between the two.
