Lag Problem - jawiie - 14.02.2015

Hey, i have lag problem in my server.
CPU Usage %2~5 and i got 1gb free ram still. Is it because of network connection?
btw i use ******' timers instead of settimer.

Can we take a look at your OnPlayerUpdate callback?

Re: Lag Problem - jawiie - 14.02.2015

Sorry im mobile now

In PlayerUpdate

Calculating vehicle speed
Checking for teleport/airbr. hack
Calculating Fuel
Checking Weapon Hack
Total km counter etc.

Sometimes we play with 65 players nolag, sometimes we play with 2-5 players laggy

May be it's a silent DDoS.

Try to buy a Gameserver host for your SA-MP server it's better then SA-MP on VPS.

What is your network allowance/speed?

How is your MySQL connected?

Re: Lag Problem - jawiie - 14.02.2015

100mbit shared network, im using mysql at localhost, i store most data at arrays to avoid mysql traffic

This can be caused by many different things, huge inefficient saving systems, too many timers, using OnPlayerUpdate or big/infinite loops.

Well, it is advised to use the least number of code in OnPlayerUpdate to avoid any mess and/or lag spikes. Seemingly, you're using y_timers which would be very effective if you add the code that you have on OnPlayerUpdate to an existing timer you have created to a short-time-interval.

It might not be the main source of lag, but it could help to minimize it as possible. Also, are you sure you're not being DDoSed?

Are you using something like:

pawn Код:

for(new i = 0; i < MAX_PLAYERS; i++)

for your loops? Try minimizing your loops as much as you can unless you're confident they don't hurt - try foreach.inc?

to slow down the function calls in onplayerupdate i used counter that trigger functions every 5 callback is it bad? while while server lagging, remote desktop connection stucks? could it be ddos?

That's unlikely.

If you'd like to provide evidence or reasoning for your second point, feel free. Other than the minimum amount of overhead on a proper, well configured hypervisor, you shouldn't have any issues running SA-MP on a virtual server. If you run it on a $3 server that is 'too good to be true' such as OVH's VPS offerings, expect issues.
