Valve has confirmed that they have isolated the HL2 stuttering problem and a patch will be released soon.
Updated: Patch will be out tomorrow! Glad I stopped playing at the beginning of Ravenholm!

QUOTE"A solution for the stuttering problem has been found and a fix is coming. I've been talking with Gary McTaggart about this today and it turns out that my texture management theory was correct. A patch will be coming for this issue that will load all of the required textures into video memory on level load, rather than doing it during game play. There is currently no ETA for this patch, but I will post an update as soon as I get more information.

Thanks Andy & Marcel Petrin. "

Yeah. Most of us saw this yesterday. Good news nonetheless.
