Actually, prior to this lag issue, I was able to run 2 18 slot CS servers, with admin mod and plugins, players pinging in the 25ms-50ms range, and the proc would only spike to 70 at the most. Now with only one 18 slot server, without any plugins or admin mod, it spikes to 96%. So I would have to disagree with that part of what you said. And this is with the lag fix by the way.
