    Has any-one else noticed that when the dedicated Server is empty and just sitting there idle. it is consuming 20 - 25 % CPU usage.

    Possible there is a small memory leak maybe?

    I have tried all the little tricks I use to optimize this to no avail.

    Server is :

    Server 2008 r2 x64 Enterprise with 3 GB of memory

    Thanks

    Are you talking about memory usage or CPU usage? Title and your post don't exactly match up.

    On our server I see 0-3% CPU load (Xeon E5-2660, Windows Server 2012)
    Memory usage is currently at 70-180 MB per rF2 server instance. This is after a server reboot 12 hours ago. When the servers ran for a few days, memory usage is usually around 250-450 MB per instance.

    Sorry...needed more coffee I guess..

    CPU at idle is using 20-25%
    Memory of the running dedicated..is 314,699 with-out any use at present (4hrs). I am not sure if it grows while idle...but I am watching it.

    It was around 213,000 K when first started...now it has grown to the above..

    does the above make any sense now?

    Our 4 League dedi-servers running Idle report similar numbers to the OP.. Idle 15-20% CPU for each instance and Memory usage reporting the same general numbers being reported by others.

    Intel Xeon E5-2407 @2.20GHz
    4 GB RAM
    Win7 64bit

    TPG: I haven't seen this issue for at least 3 previous releases...

    Thanks for the response.
