Not sure if anyone’s run into this problem. But I recently ran 2 dedicated servers for the full version of ET and it ran flawlessly for about 24 hours. I ran a 18 man config and a 16 man config on two different dual xeon 2.4 Ghz systems with 2 Gigs of ram in each. I was quite impressed on how well it worked until the next day when I noticed that the cpu utilization went way about 60-70% of the entire system that I hyperthreaded as a 4-way 1.2 Ghz system. Has anyone seen this problem happen on their end?
BTW: this is a linux server.
Here’s my server config…possibly there’s some memory tuning that I’m definitely not doing.
