Server Lag

Not sure how the lag experiments are going, but Heavy Metal still has some serious problems from time to time, and for some reason we played four games in a row tonight with no scramble of teams at all. I figured this thread could use a BUMP.

I was only looking into lag issues on the BF3 servers because that is where the complaints came from. I have removed procon and therefore our plugins as the cause of the lag and that is why we have decided to slowly transition server providers.

BC2 lag is something I have not heard about for a long time. I can also look into that and see if the plugins might be causing that but in order to know I need to be told about the lag spikes, how severe they are, and when they are.

The scramble plugin does not work every round because people complained about playing the same side two rounds in a row. It scrambles on every map change (which is 2 round on HM) so that everyone can play both sides. As for why it would go 2 maps without scrambling I have no idea.
 
All pop was fine for several hours until about 5:55 AM PT and then it got real bad for a little bit. Would be real bad: rubber banding all over, pretty much unplayable for about 15 seconds and then would be fine for a few minutes, and then unplayable for about 15 seconds again. According to chat logs this intense lag started at: Apr 2, 2013 7:57:45 am (CT i believe that would be) This only lasted for about 10 minutes with oh 3 or 4 of these unplayable lag spikes. I'm gonna stay on a bit longer to see how the lag situation goes.

Edit: Still wasn't incredibly smooth after my first post, but no major lag spikes to speak of and no complaints from users in the server

Heavy Metal has been on again / off again lagging since about December. I just did a quit check of the chat long and, sure enough, complaints were there for April 1, about 9:00 pm. I haven't seen it on the Mixed Mode.

I'll monitor the scramble; thanks.
