Hi guys,

Some time in the last few CS:GO updates I've noticed a lot of server performance issues that were long dead and buried by tweaking some rates/net cvars like world damage/nuke lag for example. The biggest fix was setting net_splitpacket_maxrate to something large like 128000.

I typed this into the server just to make sure it was still set correctly and look what spat out:

[SM] Unable to find cvar: net_splitpacket_maxrate

I can't find any references to this being removed, but does anyone know if it has a new equivalent cvar:

Interesting. Valve doing sneaky business as usual and screwing us server owners over. Have you tried talking to Ido at CSGO Mailing List about it?

[Jargon]

That's probably my next stop now that you mention it, is he likely to respond to a personal email or do I have to confront the entire list to get a response? Also he's been silent the last few updates so I hope he's still around.

[Bacardi]

Better if they have remove that cvar and rate limit.
If game not lag anymore, why worry.

[Jargon]

Oh you!

[Arkadietz]

yeah someone could you tell how can the problem be resolved? I've got higher ping now.
