Thread / Intel Xeon

Post by r0x »

I have some doubts as to the thread.

I have a dedicated server with processor:
Intel Xeon X3450 - 2.66 GHz - 8 Cores, 8M Cache
and I use the following configuration:
# Default: 10
ThreadPoolSizeEffects = 100

# Default: 13
ThreadPoolSizeGeneral = 130

# Default: 2
UrgentPacketThreadCoreSize = 20

# Default: 4
GeneralPacketThreadCoreSize = 40

# Default: 4
GeneralThreadCoreSize = 40

# Default: 6
AiMaxThread = 60
but my processor varies only 20/30 percent of use.
I am using the correct configuration?

I want to use all the features of my dedicated.

What did you expect, 100% CPU usage?
If you have problems, FIRST TRY SOLVING THEM YOURSELF, and if you get errors, TRY TO ANALYZE THEM, and ONLY if you can't help it, THEN ask here.
Otherwise you will never learn anything if all you do is copy-paste!

No, but some 60% were nice.

As BigBoss already said in multiple threads... set everything to 1000 for the best performances.

:lol:

I have same doubt, i have Dual Intel® Xeon® Processor E5520 2.26 GHz (8 cores/16 threads).

EDIT: Maybe you can help us Zakax ? You have one big server, so you know more about this XD. Nbd say one time in one topic for just use = 8 in all thread options if you have 8 cores machine. Afaik Xeon with HT have virtual cpus, in my case have 8 physical + 8 virtual cpus, so i can use all = 8 or = 16 ? Seriously, i need to know this, because i feel that i am not enjoying the full power of my machine. I would greatly appreciate some help on this.

I'm currently using:

Code: Select all

# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------# Thread Configuration# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------# Extreme caution should be here, set to defaults if you do not know what you are doing.# These could possibly hurt your servers performance or improve it depending on your server's configuration, size, and other factors.# Default: 10ThreadPoolSizeEffects = 22 # Default: 13ThreadPoolSizeGeneral = 22 # Default: 2UrgentPacketThreadCoreSize = 8 # Default: 4GeneralPacketThreadCoreSize = 8 # Default: 4GeneralThreadCoreSize = 8 # Default: 6AiMaxThread = 16

That config could really use a decent commentary, nobody really knows what those configs do except those who've read the whole code or have been thoroughly explained.

I did some research and put:
# Default: 10
ThreadPoolSizeEffects = 8

# Default: 13
ThreadPoolSizeGeneral = 8

# Default: 2
UrgentPacketThreadCoreSize = 4

# Default: 4
GeneralPacketThreadCoreSize = 6

# Default: 4
GeneralThreadCoreSize = 6

# Default: 6
AiMaxThread = 7
and now seems to be working well,
According to the eight cores of my CPU.

??? I ask about thread configs if i can set all = 16, i have this cpu on machine : 2x Intel Xeon E5520(each one have 4 physical cores + 4 on HT, so total 8cores/16threads)

Btw i have 100mbps on machine
