-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] I would appreciate if you would continue to update us. Heh, almost sounds like I should upgrade (upgrade? lol) to Windows if this continues like it is.
As to the math thing, it's actually 37.5, I was quite angry when I was writing that email. If you can't bring anything constructive to the mailing list please keep it off. Thanks. I'd rather not have spam coming from the hlds_linux mailing list because someone thinks they're better than everyone else. Anyway, if the CPU usage continues to rise on my linux servers I might go and get one Windows box and test stuff out there, or maybe get the OS reloaded on my current machines. Stupid Windows licensing is such a joke though. Costs way too much. Too bad the datacenter won't load it for you for one flat price.
