tremulous-serve uses Full CPU

[Stu Hood]

I installed tremulous and tremulous-server so I could try out the game, but I noticed that the server was eating up all of my CPU. I couldn't get a useful trace from it, but its obviously stuck in a loop somewhere.

The best I could do...

I can confirm the same behavior on my Edgy install.

Tremulous-server is running in the background on each boot and system monitor shows 100% CPU usage. When I run "top", the tremulous-server process comes up at 92% CPU usage every other second. I do not need to run a dedicated tremulous server anyway, so I removed it. The game runs fine.

Please provide more information on your computer since it doesnt happen to me on my 2 Ghz Dual Core CPU
