Hi, i have strange feedback from my server.

with the old mangos , before that ACE netcode was put in svn , my server had 700 testers without lag, i remember i have used old rev with ACE forum's version ... and no lag..

After that the ACE netcode was put in svn , my server become unplayable because i have huge lag.

The latency is ~60MS , ~150MS , but the game lag like hell

My conf is this

Network.Threads = 1

Network.OutKBuff = -1

Network.OutUBuff = 65536

Network.TcpNodelay = 2

I also tried Map-Multithreaded Patch but nothing change

Anyone can help me?

I can do anything to solve this ?

Thank You

[caeruleaus]

what kind of machine are you running it on btw?

heres what my conf is for the new netcode

Network.Threads= 2
Network.OutKBuff = 16384
Network.OutUBuff = 65536

Vmaps enabled?

Show please the head of the top output after you pressed "1" in top window.

The reason of theese lags may be in overloading one of the CPU cores.

When ACE was added to SVN, only the network-threads part was added, but not the map-threads.

And now the main thread of mangos-worldd uses ~100% of one cpu and there are no more cpu resources for mangos even if other core are almost free.

Try to merge with git://github.com/scamp/mangos, i just added the mtmaps-part in the code, so all CPU cores of you system will be used almost in equal proportions and the server will be able to handle more users without lag.

i have mtmaps-part isntalled

hi, on our server with a player amount between 200 (morning) and 800 (evening/weekend) we have often lags, we have two separated servers, one with the account db+webpage and one with the wow-server and the other databases.

on the wow-server we have a load-avg arround 3.1 and netspeed is arround 7000kbit up and 3000kbit down

the wow server is a quadcore with 8gb ram and a linux running on it. we've installed mt-maps, arena-patch and some own little patches.

Okay, try to disable vmaps for continents:

vmap.ignoreMapIds = "369,0,1,530"

[Darkpeninsula]

alredy configured

vmap.ignoreMapIds = "369,0,1,530,30"
vmap.ignoreSpellIds = "7720"

I think there are a lot of bug reports where the server is slow and it crashes with file size limit exceded error.

Check your config for this option:

WorldLogFile

and disable it. Its enabled by default.

I'm having these problems also... I tested until rev6837 and i couldn't get things to work right.

Using Ubuntu x64 8.04 LTS

I have downgraded my mangos rev to 6750 (last one before ACE) and everything is fine, the problem is brought by ACE or its config for Ubuntu or something like that. Can anyone help ??

[cozzmic]

It's a problem which came to the surface after ACE got implemented. But the problem already existed in mangos.

Anyway, I guess the devs are working on it and we should have a bit patience

Greetings,

I'm still having this ACE problems with r6872...

Could it be something regarding my OS (Ubuntu Server x64 8.04 LTS) do i need to download any new libraries (not listed on the linux compile guide) for compiling ??

Need help !!
