Casper is stupid. Did that make any sense at all?

Hosting a dedicated server can be a big advantage as it gives you better server performance. On a regular server, your computer must perform all the duties of a regular client in addition to acting as a server for however many people are in your game. As a dedicated server, you are not using it as a client so it can dedicate all its resources (cpu and memory) to serving. The only downfall to this is that you must have another computer to play on.

Actually it was rabid.

when i host a "headless" (i.e., non-graphical) dedicated server on my 500 cube, the cpu never strays above 70% in toto -- that includes all processes (but no other major processes, just background crap: mail, ichat, aquamon, etc.).

i'd be interested to hear what the cpu(s) top out at on faster servers. it would be one thing if a gig machine also topped out at 70% -- another if it topped out at only 45%.

inquiring minds . . . .
