Even if you set it at 100000, they still can only get the maxrate of the server, 25000, so there is no point unless the server maxrate >25000.

Quoted from reyalp (found here http://www.punksbusted.com/forums/lofiversion/index.php/t30594.html ):

A few ET specific notes:
snaps should always be 20 (or maybe 10 on dialup), since the server will never send more than one snap per server frame, and various things in ET break if sv_fps is not 20. ETpro will force your server to run at sv_fps 20. Setting snaps higher than sv_fps won’t give you more snaps, but it can confuse the rate limiting code, so don’t do that.

rate should be 25000, unless you are on a low bandwidth connection. While you can technically set rate higher, 25000 is near the maximum that the engine will actually be able to send.

In other words, there is no real benefit to any setting above 25000. Anyone who says otherwise is operating under b_placebo 1 … aka imagined benefits.
