I used ubuntu for a long time for hosting hlds. And last friday I switched to CentOS 5.6. Did a minimal text installation from 1st disk and running hlds. Now Im getting 300-400fps in hlds where as in ubuntu I used to get 700-800fps.
Though ubuntu has a default kernel hz 100 and centos 1000

EL6 claims better [url=http://www.google.com/search?q=performance+rhel6+OR+%22red+hat+enterprise+linux+6%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&safe=active]performance[/url]. You might want to try CentOS-6.

Re: game server fps
That is way too nebulous a statement to support a contention that you should be getting better performance.
Some people may have killer hardware, or be expert in kernel tuning, or tweaking BIOS settings, or be running a custom kernel, etc.
You could try a [url=http://glitesoft.cern.ch/cern/mrg/slc5X/i386/RPMS/repoview/kernel-rt.html]real-time kernel[/url] but those are generally used more for predictable response than acceleration. Another alternative would be to try the latest [url=http://elrepo.org/tiki/kernel-ml]ELRepo kernel-ml mainline kernel[/url].
