Level of Compression

[filo]

Good Day, I need tell somethind about compression in mangosd.conf

Last time I have problems with lags on my server, it couse my internet connection (WiFi 5Mbit). But I turn off Vmaps, tcpdelay = 0, do not show bones in thw world, and everything is OK. But I also edit level of compression to 5, and on my second realm I try set to 9.

Ok my question: When I set it to

1 - More traffic, less CPU/or ram usage?

9 - More CPU/or ram usage, less traffic?

Thanks

yes it is true

[filo]

yes it is true

Ok Thanks.

And its eat more CPU or RAM? Becouse I have good processor, but only 2gb ram, becouse i need try to set level to 9. Thanks for help.

It needs cpu power. I dont think it will use more ram.

mangos isnt multi threaded anyway so unless are are using a mtmaps patch or other id leave it at 1

Compression defines what deflate level is used for compressing SMSG_COMPRESSED_UPDATE_OBJECT - it has nothing to do with threads at all!

Ok, thanks for the clarification. In this case, even to ask something. When I have a good processor, so I can set the level at 9 and I have just a good processor and a ping should be improved? What is recommended to set up level of compression, if I have mtmaps on? Thanks

No but surly if load is more balanced across cores instead of all mangos load on one core then there is more CPU for compression (depending on testers online)?

You wouldn't save that much traffic by setting compression level to '9'. Use '1', mangos will definitely find use for free CPU resources

Unfortunately it doesn't, it just starts increasing ingame lag at some point..

Well, this is almost fixed Currently I and SilverIce are working on patch, which will allow core to scale like hell with mtmaps... Stay tuned

Interesting. Cant wait to test it

[nanounico]

so, for, 1500+ testers, and 2x intel xeon 5430, what would be the best configuration?
