Can you provide us some details about your setup, such as OS, AMXX vers, meta list, plugins list ?
That would help us help you better.
If your getting 1000fps at any time, then no you shouldn't be seeing it drop as low as 70fps as long as your system and setup is stable and correctly configured.
That's also a very high CPU use especially with only 8 players.
