answered thank you

define "proc affinity", what core(s) are you setting to what session(s)? it kinda sounds like you're using HT cores seperately.

for example, i use (lately) all cpu/ht/ded cpu1/fps60/30 option in isboxer (though i think roundrobin is whats actually recommended vs. allcpu for eq2).

Hi guys, I was hoping someone here would be able to help me out. While playing anywhere from 2 to 6 accounts, 1 to 3 of my accounts will have a random 1+ minute delay on everything they do, the other ones will be fine.

I have only ever seen this happen when my Internet has been acting up.

Run a speed test with NO eq2 sessions running.
What is your ping/upload/download?

Now load up the max sessions you usually load, get into combat, and run the test again.

9 ping, 9.49 download, .74 upload with nothing else running
28 ping 2.49 download .43 upload with 6 sessions running

looks like i should talk to my internet providers huh?

Ouch....

Your ping is fantastic.
Your download seems like it could be acceptable, on the verge...
But your upload is absolutely terrible.

it's hard to say where your problem actually is, because I personally only have 2.0 mb upload, and that is fine. My download is 60mb. In the winter, I had issues with it intermittently going way down, when my download would drop to around <7mb, I'd get some serious lag.
Having said that, I would start with your Internet to see if you can increase it, see if that improves things at all, then go from there.
