Getting pretty bad rubber banding lately especially tonight. Had to restart the server when it was full.

Wasnt getting this a few weeks, just the server crashes. Has anything changed?

There's already a thread about this: http://www.ausgamers.com/forums/gsr/thread.php/3373886

i agree, my server on 203.46.105.23:26000 - looks like it is the same box as everyone else in this thread is also rubber banding. maxes out at 100% CPU when 64 players are on.

Can someone please look at increasing the resources on this machine?

Yeah same here, spiking to 100% at 64 players

Please expect a short downtime tomorrow morning for GA0113, we'll be rebooting it to make some configuration changes that resolved similar issues on GA0114.

Back tracking? No.

Here's how we roll: we admit when we've made a mistake or the problem was caused by us. We hope that means that our customers trust us when we say that something isn't our fault.

In this case: Some of the current performance issues for servers on ga0113 appear to be related to overloading that host. We are taking the steps to fix that, including stopping all new large subscriptions, altering the performance configuration of that host, and moving appropriate servers off that host.

The overloading of ga0113 isn't the only reason for performance issues on servers on that host. Earlier in the month we were watching servers sit at 60% CPU usage and still lag. That isn't our fault - we can't make the damn things use more CPU time. We are still seeing some odd performance with individual servers performing much worse than other servers on the same host, and we are trying to track down the cause so DICE can fix it. We'll get a better picture over the next few days. After we made similar changes on GA0114 we found that some of the servers on that host were performing better, but most did not improve with the extra resources. The ones that improved: that was our fault for not giving them enough resources. The ones that didn't improve: there isn't much we can do if we throw more resources at them and they don't get better.

From what our customers tell us, most RSPs simply refuse to admit to any problem. That does make it easier for them; they never have to explain themselves like this, but we'd prefer to be honest and hope that our honesty is respected.

Ok,

Was just wondering cause your post looked like you were saying that the issues were caused by config issues or setup on your end, which if so i had complained about before.

Either way if it gets fixed it gets fixed, biggest problem i have right now is noone wants to play on our BF4 server due to the horrible lag it gets at peak times 5pm - 1am, even my administrators have given up on playing on my server and have reverted to playing on other servers or just not playing at all.

Im glad im not with the two other "read: S***" companies, last time i was with them i had so much lag it wasnt worth the money i was spending, ive been around a while even ran my own hosting company for a few years so i know what you guys are going through, just hopefully you can get ontop of these issues because there is people going around saying some nasty stuff right now, posts like these you just made help show that you infact do care, and hopefully those people making posts and talking s*** will read this and just see what we all do.

Thanks for all your work Mal and keeping us updated.

Just an update that my server is still rubber banding and jittering a lot. Currently unplayable ATM. It's Paracel Storm 24/7 does this map seem to cause more lag then others in any of your testing Malthius? 203.46.105.23:21250
