Along with Server R16 patch coming up within the next few days(Beta r16 is already on 50%+ servers) Which fixes the issues;

Most GSP's are disabling The new Logging features they added. (server logs all chat, logs all kills/kill messages, logs all remote admin commands, etc)

This has relieved the lag (Disk I/O Lag really) that the game was having, causing stuttering, warping, rubber-banding..

I found a simalar problem with URT a few years back when excessive logging was done or 2 log files were written, ex; sv_log "games_log" and if you added sv_log2 "log_whatever" the game would laggg really horribly. extra logs were usually added for 3rd part stats parsing, etc.

BC2 is having lag with these extra Logs not because of a design flaw but because many admins feel it neccisary to log everything plus use multiple 3RD party RCON tools (most running 24/7) plus several other admins for the same server(s) doing the same. Dice only supports using the games built in rcon, and not the kazzilion other 3rd party apps to create lazy admins.
