100% CPU usage Oo
When i load the default server.cfg i get low cpu usage. When i load the one i made it gets 100% cpu usage. I deleted slowly almost EVERYTHING from my cfg trying to find out what causes it. Still 100%! wtf? Any ideas?
can you post your server.cfg and rotation.txt?
My question was lame. However, excessive plus has the worst manual i've ever seen :roll:
Anyways, delete this thread, if the moderators read.
oh, btw, if i set set com_hunkmegs to something like 50 instead of 80 will it affect things alot?
All 9 of my servers run at hunkmegs 32, no problems. Its not like it needs a huge amount of memory, it's more CPU and network intensive than memory hungry.
hm i have a feeeling you were loading the same map on rotation and on server load?
not back yet, im typing thanx to beautiful Leukothea and her DSL
im always using 100% cpu usage , nothing to worry about ;D if you closely look at when you open firefox, u will see that it uses 100% cpu usage for a task as easy as this...i think ur processor just puts full capacity on things that you want to work quickly. im no expert, this is how mine works though
btw ,
dont tell me its broken
hehe, tyrant... what are u using a 486?
In lamens terms:
Tasks will use more CPU resources (on a percentage scale) on a lower end processor than a higher end processor.
I.E. - low end = celeron/sempron/duron (or earlier)
- high end = core 2 duo (E6000 series); core 2 extreme (X6000 series)/fx-60; fx-62 (or later)
IMO thats pretty bad if it takes 100% of your CPU's resources to open a web browser... GET A NEW PROCESSOR!
heh... I've said all this and I still use a damn 340, sheesh... army don't pay me enuf.
Wow, I got totally off topic... my bad.

haha, i like my ancient cpu!
if it aint broke dont fix it...it plays q3 quite fine for me @ max settings and is very smoothly capped on 125fps, with the help of my high end agp gfx card
however, after many years it may have recently broke, so i will just have to wait and find out

Hi,
What version of q3 are you running? I noticed the same thing on linux, when stdin was closed. It seems to be a bug in q3. My workaround is to run the serv within 'screen' program, wich keeps standard input open. Look at http://icculus.org/quake3/ - they have removed the bug from their version of q3, but I didn't run the newest version (it doesn't have punkbuster support).
