TF2 Performance Question - Reynolds - Jul 12, 2009

Is this normal? I've never really seen anyone complain about it before, so I'm starting to think it's just a problem on my end (and the googles, they do nothing!)

When I quit TF2, it grinds my HDD for a good 3-7 minutes. I exit, go to my desktop, and it's just grind grind grind. Any ideas why either a) it's doing this or b) if it's 'normal' why no one complains?

You're probably swapping to disk a lot. More RAM might help. How much do you have? You could try defragging.

Drive is about 1 year old. TF2 is the only thing that does anything remotely like this on my pc - even other source games behave normally.

Defragging the drive and defragging TF2 through steam both show no improvements.

I've got a 2gb swap and 2gb ram (+512 vid on an 8800GTS). (on XP)

Going to try and reinstall today.

The reinstalls, they did nothingz!

I guess I'll just keep on living with this - it's not that big of a deal, usually, to walk away from the pc for 5 minutes after I quit TF2. Everything else works flawlessly (and I work on the same comp, so I'd know for sure if something wasn't working right - under a lot of load most days).

God damn your chicken scratches keep getting harder to read each time. Stop trying to be different already.
