That's nonsense, a dedicated server just needs to handle network
connections between the clients and it manages a global gamestate
(Player locations / health / etc) A dedicated server doesn't need to
load all those high resolution textures in memory. That's where the huge
amount of memory usage is coming from I think.
There is a command 'meminfo' in CoD4, I'm not sure what the numbers mean
though.
meminfo
10485760 bytes total hunk
5096 low permanent
39648 high permanent
44744 total hunk in use
$init 0.0
common_mp 39.0
localized_common_m 2.6
free physical 33.6
mp_convoy 51.7
localized_code_pos 0.7
code_post_gfx_mp 0.5
