Better yet, why don't you? We've been over this. I run windows and linux servers. The windows servers outperform the linux ones time over time. Stop citing inaccurrate cpu reporting from either OS. If you wish to make such statements back them up with proof. My view that windows uses less CPU

Jeremy, Its very real. Your ignorance is shocking. Please explain to me how 32% cpu on de_airstrip with 15 players is "not real"? All fo you are misinterpreting what I am saying also. OBVIOUSLY if you stack the server with players, its going to also make an exponential difference on the system
