Tijai 1 Posted June 22, 2009 Should ArmA 2 Dedicated server really be running at 60 to 70% CPU? Seems a tad too high for my liking Anyone know what causes this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SRRViper 10 Posted June 22, 2009 Depends on the cpu spec Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[kh]jman 49 Posted June 22, 2009 (edited) On An AMD 3800+ for example you will see 100% cpu usage whereas on a 5000 series Quad Core Xeon you will see an average of 25-30%. 60%-70% usage indicates that the server cpu you are using is sufficient but not leaving much overhead. ArmA/ArmA2 is very cpu intensive for the server since it calculates AI. Edited June 22, 2009 by [KH]Jman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tijai 1 Posted June 22, 2009 Its running on an intel Xeon 3065 2.33Ghz with 4gb ram. some missions vary between 20 and 50%. The Evo mission is 55% to 70% Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[kh]jman 49 Posted June 22, 2009 (edited) Yes that sounds about right for a 3000 series. The 5000 series would serve you better if that were in your budget. The more heavily scripted missions i.e. Evolution and Domination the more CPU usage you will see on the server's cpu's. If you try a PVP you will see a significant reduction in cpu load.
