Time Acceleration & Client Side Prediction

Hi,
Is it possible to accelerate the Quake 2 simulation from the game DLL
without having any nasty side effects on the client side prediction?
Basically, I have a dedicated Q2 server which runs in accelerated time
(maximum speed) when I need to run my learning AI. To do this, I
highjacked the G_RunFrame() function to run as many times as possible in
0.1 seconds, then return.
This works OK for most purposes, but I get messed up client side prediction
when I connect to the server (only after a while); the bots bob up and down.
Can anyone think of a fix, or a better way to achieve this?
Thanks!
Alex
