Low sv var with docker
 

I use LinuxGSM, and my 128tick servers always get extreme low var (0.001~0.015 with tuned-adm)(my server is a dedicated debian, not a VPS)

But I want to migrate to Docker images (with pterodactyl maybe).

I ran some tests in my own desktop with windows 10 (I7 9700).

With this image https://hub.docker.com/r/cm2network/csgo I was able to get something around 0.030~0.060, but with some 1.500 spikes (no bots)

With this image https://hub.docker.com/r/crazymax/csgo-server-launcher I tested with 10 bots and was getting 10.000~60.000

So my question is:

Can I get low var (0.001~0.010) using docker images with the same dedicated server that i can get lower var using LinuxGSM? Or just because the fact that i'm using docker, no matter what i do, i can't get low var?

If someone already managed to get low var, please share how you did it.

Thank you!

And in this case, installing tuned with performance and changing kernel (to Liquorix for example), would make a difference?

Re: Low sv var with docker
 

Using docker will not decrease performance, installing a different kernel and using tuned will make a difference. You will have to make adjustments to see what works best for you. Pterodactyl works great, same with using another docker image, like the one you linked.

Running something on your own desktop and comparing it to your server will not give you any valid results. Also the results of one using bots and the other not does not give a comparison to work with either.
Yes.
No, using Docker can give you the same performance.

Make ur own kernel is always the best. i have mostly 98% 0.000 - 0.001 with 24 players @128 Tick and i don't use tuned adm.

- debian 10
- own kernel
modified grub.cfg (etc/default/grub.cfg
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="intel_idle.max_cs tate=0 processor.max_cstate=1 idle=poll intel_pstate=disable"
+ run srcds in realtime

that gives me the lowest sv/var.

there is only one command in tuned's profile which sets the var to low values. force_latency=1 do the trick.

why everyone needs a 0.000000 var? there is no differecne 0.000 or 0.050 or higher, lol. even 0.300 is awesome!

look at faceit servers lol, 128 tick 10 players sv 5-6 and a horrible var spiking a lot. i think they use the HPET clocksource. i love the HPET enabled, but its only for low slot servers and not recommened for high slot servers.

I for the life of me could NOT offload networking onto another thread with Pterodactyl compared to running it native in Linux (Changing kernal made 0 difference for me). If anyone who has used Pterodactyl could shed some light, that would be awesome.
