Halo CPU Usage

[cengroba]

Hey everyone,

 

I have some issues regarding both Halo and Halo CE (Custom Edition) servers and wondering if anyone else experiences the same problems. Both servers use about 5% of 4 CPUS when running idle. When players start joining the server it can go as high as 30%, this is without any mods to the server! I believe this is kind of high. I have tried re-downloading the server files from Microsoft and starting from scratch however I still experience the same issue.

Anyone else experience high cpu usage with Halo servers or is this just how they work? I can probably only run 3 or 4 game servers on this server if this is how they run.

 

Any feedback is appreciated, thanks!

I find that HALO servers use a lot of CPU. Had a client who had one for several months and it was a beast.
