What speed is that p4? I get 35-40% cpu with 12 players playing Dust2. 2.4 Intel with Slack 8.1.

Sorry James, but I have to deny it, because it's true. I've spent more time looking at top on full gameservers in my life than I care to admit, and 1.6 runs as well or better than 1.5. 18 players never even spikes past 35%, even on office or aztec, running a single P4 and Slack 8. Terribly sorry for the issues you and a few others seem to be having...but don't say it can't be done. Best of luck to you.
