[bf1942] Info on the next beta

[Andreas, Fredriksson]

Any and all statistics and performance data are always welcome,
I don't have that amount of players here. To bad I don't have the
ability to run an internet server during development either. :-/

The performance increase in OB7 was mostly due to the fact that
OB5 was badly optimized in some ways, so it doesn't apply to
windows.

Still enough so that they arent usable unfortunately iirc. If you want
some metrics I can through them on our server for a night it you
like?

Oh been asked by a few peps will the performance increase in
the linux build be seen in the win32 in the next patch?
