The CPU does not skyrocket as far as I saw (although I only looked at the
load, next time i'll check the actual process). I am indeed seeing the
lag with a decent ping (around 40-60).

Yes, it's a colo box so I have external and internal networks, although
the external interface only has one address assigned to it (no IP
aliases). For the curious the box is a Dell 2650 dual 2ghz, IP
63.123.237.8, listed in gamespy as:
NBrigade FreeBSD Test Dual 2gh
Let me know if you want any further details (as a matter of fact the other
FreeBSD box I am successful on is dual-homed as well. I'll try to find
a single interface box to test).
