Lets Talk About Hosting a 24/7 Dedicated P3D Server

[Arisonius]

I am pretty sure most of the instability comes from the software not being optimized properly.
Granted that it only runs on 1 core ( reason why it's not intensive, at all) and perhaps is not fully taking advantage of whatever connection speed you have but I could be wrong about the latter.

Even with it only taking advantage of one of my cores, it never reached a maximum load on my core, so I suspect that your suspicions are spot on, Mr. Hippo.

im not havin any complaints on my server at all as far as speed goes but i also havent had more than 7-8 people on at most and the load is set to 100 people.

I think a lot of it has to do with where people are in relation to you, physically, as well. Not just UL/DL speeds. Many people experienced lag on the official P3D server, where as mine the lag was much less for them.

Wouldn't be that far from the truth, considering most of the players are American. (at least the ones I talk to.) and the official server is hosted.... in..... Norway?
