I run Hardcoded TWGS on a factory built dell DUAL PIII 850 MGHZ with 512 megs of ram. 40 gig Hard Drive and running windows 2000 Server Edition.
Once in a while I will notice that one of the TWGS threads listed in the system processes will start eating up both CPUS often pushing them to 100%, it lags the server badly until it drops a few of the players and then the lag clears up.
Is there any reason as to why this happens? or any way to prevent it? I always set the TWGS threads at high priority. Any input would help alot.
Thank You

Sorry, no idea why it would be doing that. If no one else responds with any input, you may want to contact JP directly about it.

Silver,

You may want to set TWGS back to NORMAL Priority.

Back in early 2002, I noticed the problem where twgs.exe itself was using 100% CPU for about 5-10 seconds, so I tried changing the priority to both High and Realtime. In both cases, the problem became much more pronounced. Setting priority back to normal eased the issue back to approximately once per month.

I wish I had an explanation for why it happens.

BTW, I'm running Win2k Professional, Dell Optiplex 1.7Ghz P4, 768mb PC133.
