UT Patch News -- 11:21 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Voodoo Extreme pointed to this news on Barry's World regarding an upcoming patch for Unreal Tournament which will lower CPU utilization for servers. Here's the deal:
The server patch posted a couple of weeks ago approximately halved server CPU utilization compared to unpatched demos. Since we went gold, I`ve been working on further optimizations and have halved server CPU utilization again. We`ll release a patch with these optimizations and other enhancements shortly.

Based on my testing:

Patched demo server with 16 players takes about 60% CPU utilization on a P2-400.

The new code with 16 players is about 30% CPU utilization on a P2-400.
More details to follow, no doubt.
