Auto Boost

Servers that hit their CPU or memory limit get extra resources for a while, so players do not notice the lag.

Stratum → Servers → Auto Boost. When a server runs at its limit for a while, Stratum raises its CPU and/or memory for a set time and then sets the normal limits back.

When a server is boosted

A spike is usage at or above a share of the limit (default 90 %) for at least a set time (default 60 seconds). The check runs every 30 seconds.

The list on the page shows active and past boosts. Staff can end a boost early.

Suggestions

Use Selected and pick your bigger servers first. Make sure the node has room for the extra memory; a boost is not an Upgrade, it ends on its own.
