Loss/Lag

[zeinstruktor]

Alright.
The past two months have been a nightmare at times. When I joined Discovery, my ping was this pretty nice; a cool 150-160ms, 3-5 fluct, loss and lag was a nightmare.

Now, just recently, I've been getting a constant 3-7% loss, and occasional lag. And I know it's not just me. EVERYONE I /pingtarget also has the -exact- same loss as me. So... What's going on with the server?

Is it that thing one of the admins (I think Majkp) was talking about, that he lowered the clock rate to 4.0 GHZ from 4.5? That's the only reason I can think of...

EDIT: Example of about 4 months ago, and 10 minutes ago:

Alright, maybe that was an extreme example, but this is the normal for me right now, on a daily basis, even if there are only 80 people online:

Bump...

I read somewhere that the server processor is being clocked down to 4ghz for stability, hence the increased lag/loss, and something about a tester's server. Usual output is 4.5ghz, if I recall correctly.

I may be wrong, but that's just what I remember reading somewhere. >.>
