syztems 2 #1 Posted April 1, 2012 Now, chicago arena server lags with only 12 people on it (early AM) and as of 7:30 PM CST its been freezing completely, randomly dropping people and giving anyone left a notice as if they just joined the server, but gameplay continues. it is choppy all the way through. calmed down a bit as of 750pm CST Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shiny Charizard 451 #3 Posted April 1, 2012 Earlier every ping was over 100. Most in the 150-200 range. It was kind of odd. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mana 3,867 #4 Posted April 2, 2012 This weekend I made some changes to make sure that replay takes the lowest priority possible (the HTTP serving part). This won't help with the server freezing though when replay does it's cleanup. If lag is still happening then replay will have to be disabled. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luckily Valve seems to have disabled their own replay feature. NULL ERROR! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

syztems 2 #7 Posted April 3, 2012 it does the occasional restart thing where its about 5 seconds of frozen then it makes it look like a bunch of people just entered, but were still playing (some disconnect). just curious, why is replay on anyway? is it for the reporting purpose? because i dont know of any one i talk to on chicago arena that use it. just did it at precisely 5:04:25 PM CST, not sure if theres some kinda log you can see where a time stamp may help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am going to strangle you with your own frilly training bra!Hell no, I like to waste time and edit! Speaking of such, I did not notice any of this lag today, perhaps its not just related to it?

Mana 3,867 #13 Posted April 9, 2012 lotus arena is frequently douing that reset with a 9 second lag/freeze as of 6:00 PM That is probably caused by replay cleanup. So on Friday I disabled replay. Due to no recent complaints I would take it the issue has been fixed? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
