Don't forget dual is not giving you anything atm unless you manually hack the 
affinity.

Has anyone noticed performance related issues with the Linux version of TF2?

 Take 2 boxes to compare, one running windows one running linux. Both identical 
hardware in Dual Xeon 2.6ghz.

 The windows box I run 1 TFC server and 3 TF2 servers. Running a simple booster 
I get 125-250 fps even when the servers are full.
 On a 1000hz distru of Linux runnin 2 TFC servers (no problems what so ever) 
and 2 TF2 servers, even with just one TF2 server
when it gets full the serverside fps drops down to 20-40fps and rcon stats 
reports 80-90CPU usage.

 Yet the process in linux only shows around 20-30%?

 Just a little bit baffled as TFC runs fine on the box and both identical spec 
machines the only difference is the OS and
binarys?

 Have I missed something in my rush to get my hands on the game and play it? :D

 Regards
 John
