This hasn't been the case for some time. While IDE still uses some CPU, it's mostly insignificant.
Well, that depends on how pegged out your single cpu is from the hlds processes. If you are taking up most if not all of your cpu with 2 or more hlds processes, when one changes maps, it *will* lag the servers. I have seen it happen recently on damn respectable hardware with an IDE drive in it. Its just too bad hlds uses so much cpu now, compared to when it used to.
