up to 12 servers running under Fedora 4 Linux quad 1.6ghz xeon w/ 8 gigs of ram,
so yes linux will support all the cpu’s you can stuff in the box. The real
issue is bandwidth, my small development servers are on an 8 meg pipe and the
big guy is on a 100meg. The more you have the less lag you will have. COD4 is
limited to 1 gig per server, for just the game portion it hovers around 250
megs of memory each.<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>

going to be building a new server to replace a box that is running three
instances of the COD4 Linux server. The current box is a 2.6Ghz P4 with 2Gb of
RAM. It plays fine most of the time with two of the servers almost always maxed
out at 32 players each and one sits idle for TWL matches. I want to go with a
quad core Xeon but I’m not sure how fast I need to go with it. I plan on
running as many servers on one box as possible. If I can get 6 servers running
on a single box with no lag that would be great. Can any one tell me if the
cod4 Linux server supports multiple CPUs?<u1:p></u1:p></span></font><font

what would you recommend in the way of CPU frequency and RAM. I was thinking
somewhere around quad 2.4ghz with 4Gb of RAM.<u1:p></u1:p></span></font><font
