    Anybody else implemented this yet, now your pings are unbeleivable, do you mean that that is how much the pings are reduced by, or what they are? I think you mean that's how much they are reduced by.


    Any other ops have anything to say about this?

    pingboost settings vary from server to server..

    try pingboost 2 or 1 even. You might find better results in those than in 3

    I've been using pingboost 1. Setting 2 or 3 (I forget which) actually increases CPU usage which, in theory, will make your server <b>worse</b> off than if you used no pingboost at all (running NS anyway). At least, that's what I found on my server.

    When I had a linux server -pingboost 2 was the best option for me... low cpu usage, stable and slightty better pings. This may not be true in other systems..
