Source Engine Tickrate Reduction and Physics Determinism

Optimizing server-side resource utilization for low-traffic workloads often involves reducing the server tickrate to lower CPU overhead and outbound bandwidth. While the Source Engine utilizes client-side prediction and server-side reconciliation to mask latency, the physics engine's stability is closely tied to the update frequency. There is uncertainty reg
