Hi, I found that a client of mine is running EggDrop in one our Linux boxes. That fellow runs three bots simultaneously. My question is: Is there anything wrong with letting people run IRC bots? Would there be any significant impact to the server's performance? I used renice to lower the priorities of the bots already. I noticed that the bots open up a large number of sockets. Is it possible that these processes would consume a large ammount of kernel resources? Thanks -Doug
