Lag Spikes during Backup


ChiliMag

Recommended Posts

At 5 minutes past the hour and 1/2 hour we get a lag spike that delays opening containers, attacking, and other actions. This seems to go on for a minute or so (presumably until our backup is complete) and then we have 29 minutes more hassle-free play.  I think this only started the last couple of weeks.  I don't think it was always a thing.

 

Is this happening to anyone else?

Should I open a ticket or deal with it?

SteamCMD (the tool from Steam we use to update servers) has an inherent issue with spiking CPU. There's not much of a way around that yet to my knowledge. I am going to try a few things to see if I can fix that issue, including removing file verification.

That is really good customer service.  Thanks Ryan!  I think I saw that I could change how often it backs up as well, so we might try that for a little relief.  I haven't needed to restore in the 3 months we have had the server, so probably moving that to every 2 hours should be fine.
