Since KAC Install, I am getting some complaints

[Frag| Canuck]

Hi Kigen,

Since my install yesterday I have been getting complaints with server lag. Everything ran 100% for the first couple hours then I recieved multiple complaints about my source servers lagging really hard. Now trust me on this one, I always get the clients to traceroute, check rates yadda yadda... But this is coming from multiple locations over North America and from players that do know how to test if its their connection faulting somewhere or whatnot.

Here is my current setup on all my servers:

[01] Mani Admin Plugin (1.2BetaS SMM) by Mani
[02] SourceMod (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
[03] CS:S Tools (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
[04] SDK Tools (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC

Here are the plugins on Sourcemod running:

01 "Admin File Reader" (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
02 "Admin Help" (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
03 "Admin Menu" (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
04 "Basic Chat" (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
05 "Basic Comm Control" (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
06 "Basic Commands" (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
07 "Basic Info Triggers" (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
08 <Failed> "Client Preferences" (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
09 "Kigen's Anti-Cheat" (1.1.6) by Kigen
10 "SlapSlay Commands" (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
11 "Reserved Slots" (1.1.0) by AlliedModders LLC
12 "SourceBans" (1.4.0) by InterWave Studios Development Team

Would you be able to know if there is any complications with this setup that could cause the problem?

Secondly, I recieved a post on my forums about someone being banned. Would you be so kind to enlighten myself of what this means?

And here is his ban on sourcebans and what it said:

Any further help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again. I really hope your plugin isnt causing the problems, but I have a suspicion it is Mani to be honest with you, but I still wanted to check before I make any drastic changes.

Lag issues are one of those things were it could be multiple things.

As far as that dude saying "bunny hopping causes KAC bans" it does not. KAC will only ban for third party cheats, he could have sat in spectator and KAC still would've banned him because he was cheating. Bunny hopping doesn't affect the results of convar queries. Nothing like bunny hopping or anything like that would cause a KAC ban.

Make sure you use the Sockets version in the URL below.

Thanks for the sockets link. I will look into it. I am using currently 1.4.0 Beta 2.1.1.

Update:
I did update sockets, still same problems.. I took off mani, and eventscripts, same problems.

I took off KAC, then the lag went away.

I am at a loss of words. I want to be able to use your plugin, but I cant stand the complaints from the regs on the servers.

Any more suggestions?

[Kigen]

hrm, I'll look into it.

Have you looked into this?

Would you consider your plugin more CPU intensive than average plugins? Can you describe a little bit of its operation? Are there checks done on a player continuously or just when they enter the server? Every round? multiple times per round?

Get the No Sockets version.
