Issue with CPU & RAM

Discussion in 'Rust Discussion' started by Whis, May 3, 2015.

  1. I am having an issue with high CPU & RAM usage on my server and it is caused by plugins. Can you take a look at the plugins I've listed that are in use and tell me what is conflicting or causing issues?My Host www.deinserverhost.de

    Server map sometimes crashes and server freezes and is forced to shut down and restart again.

    Plugins :
    Code:
    FriendsAPI
    AutoBroadCast
    AutoDoorCloser
    BetterLoot
    BuildBlocker
    BuildingGrades
    BuildingOwners
    Chathandler
    Clans
    CraftingController
    DeathNotes
    EnhancedBanSystem
    ExplosiveModifier
    FriendlyFire
    FriendsFriendlyFire
    Give
    Godmode
    helptext
    Kits
    m-Gatherrate
    m-Teleportation
    m-Time
    Playerlist
    RemoverTool
    ServerRules
    StackSize
    TwigsDecay
    War-System
    If you need more Information so tell me what :)

    I don't see any issues, and that resource usage really isn't bad.
     
  7. the Host provider told that plugins are conflicting / causing the issues. Server freezing isnt normal and only way to explain it is that something is conflicting with something.
    and the Server map sometimes crashes and server freezes and is forced to shut down and restart again.

    We are now with 100 Players full..
    Server is really laggy but i dont know why :(

    Plugins are the go-to for hosts to blame what they can't explain. If it is indeed a plugin, the only real way to figure out would be to remove them and see.
     
  9. you should check and note times of beginning and finish of Update() execution for every plugin. every once in a while dump averages to console (plus what was the longest time noted). this should give you an overview of what takes its sweet time exactly. imho this is a better method then adding plugins one by one since you can't really be sure what causes the chokes, and you could waste a lot of time trying to reproduce the issue. sometimes errors pop up only in very specific conditions - those are usually the most interesting ones :).

    when you rent a server you seldom get a full dedicated server (those are expensive), most of the time you share one machine with other users thanks to something called virtualization. how well such server works depends on its hardware and the experience of the administrators. i don't know where you are from and where do you rent your server, but if it gets laggy at peak hours, chances are other servers hosted on the same machine have their peak hours too, and the hosting company's hardware or network can't keep up.

    good luck and let us know.
     
  10. That is what i said before to my Admins...There is maybe to much Customers at one Dedicated Server..
    I am from Germany and my host is : www.deinserverhost.de

    What you think about this Specs for a Dedicated Server and is it possible to Run Rust without Laggs or something ?
    How much Players can i hold it with this..

    AMD FX 6100 :

    • Processor : AMD FX-6100 (6x 3.3GHz)
    • RAM : 16GB DDR3 RAM
    • Harddisk: 500GB SATA III
    • Connectivity: 100Mbit
    • Traffic: 1TB inkl
    • OS: Debian 6&7, Ubuntu, CentOS, Windows Server 2008&2012
    • SSH / SSH + Gameserver Interface, RDP (Windows)

  11. This is a high-end dedicated server. I'm just gonna assume this is the one you are thinking about getting, not the one you have right now. You probably don't need one that expensive. Bare in mind that if this is the same company you might have similar bad experience with customer support later. I really would NOT upgrade till YOU are sure that the better hardware is the solution (don't necessarily believe the company, it's in their interest that you update). If you do decide to buy a better server, bare in mind that some companies provide only limited support for your dedicated server - for example they might only install operating system on it. This is not a rule but it happens, so you better ask beforehand.
     
  12. Thank you for the answer.
    That is what i think too.The Support of my Host is very fine, its fast and help me with some Errors.

    The reason why i ask here is i want to be sure to buy a Dedicated Server and want get some Information about it.
    I never used a Dedicated Server before.
    Our Server is very laggy at the moment because there is more Customers on the Dedicated Server.
    This Spec's are the Dedicated Server that we maybe want.

  13. Is the price per month ok with you? There are literally thousands of companies that provide game servers for rent. You really don't need so powerful machine i think. Remember, Rust is in alpha and performance just is bad sometimes.

    In any case, you should try timing the plugins as I suggested. Did you modify any of them btw?

    If you decide to go with the better server, at least request a 1 day trial, install any plugins that you will need and get all the ppl you can to join so you can judge the performance. Good luck!
