[mohaa] cpu usage?

['.']

I'm actually quite happy with it. There are 30 people on my MOHSH linux
server right now and while CPU utilization is up to 95% on one CPU, memory
utilization is at 33%. I'm also running MOHAA on the same box from the same
directory tree along with TeamSpeak and I'm very very satisfied with it. I
have dual procs with 384MB of ram... Soon to upgraded with more mem. 

I think its important to say, the process *won't* load balance cpu
utilization off multiprocessers unless it's written to do so.

Run 'top -I' next time your Sprearhead server get over 10 players.

I am using the Beta1 linux server and yesterday I played with about 6 
people at the same time.
According to my sar output, my %USER usage on the CPU didn't go above a 
few percents.

It is running on a Athlon 1200 with 512 megs of ram.

As far as I know it's very important to have enough ram. so the maps and

certain events can run around in the memory, and do not need swap. As 
that would kill your machine.

Tonight I'll actively monitor my CPU manually when we play again. As sar

uses an avarage over one minute.
