[cod] Traffic data question

[James Landi]

Max rate determines who much data is given to each client.  You determine
this by the number of clients you wish to run and how fast your upload link
is. I would not recommend going under 5000, thus you can determine how many
slots you can run with your upload limit.

 

 

More info and how to set max rate here:

For anyone running IE and you have excel installed check out a quick page I
put together here:

I know I know this is a Linux mailing list but it was the quickest thing I
could through together for my members

I know that max_rate is something to do with limiting the amount of data
that a server sends but can someone tell me exactly what it is to do with.

 

i.e. is it the amount fo data per client or how much it can send out in
total or am i way off the mark??

Excellent point.. Thanks for that reminder. 
This server was just for testing but we have 15000 sv_rate setup..

Thanks,
