Topic: Client stability when running multiple clients
Hey all,
First of all I understand completely if this is a low priority issue, I know the game is not really designed to be run using a large number of clients on same box. However, I would like to report that there appears to have been a change in recent patch that has effectively reduced the stability when running 6+ clients.
Prior to recent patch my machine was running 7 clients with perfect stability (i.e., no increase in system resources after 6+ hours), but now there seems to be a gradual but steady consumption of system resources. It would be really unnoticeable running 1-3 clients, but at 7 every little bit counts :-).
I am not sure what could be causing it. I have noticed that now when I am scanning for minerals the system freezes when doing the "upload and show", perhaps due to the accumulation of old scans.. but perhaps completely unrelated.
