You got it right. A hitch warning is emitted if the computation of a server frame starts too late for a given value in sv_fps. This happens frequently on start of maps, due to long latencies of disk I/O when server needs to open big pak files. It is quite normal and nothing to worry about, as long as it only happens during map change. If it happens during gameplay, the server is simply overtaxed. -- Thilo Schulz
