Well they are on the same cable.. Which I know is suboptimal for performance reasons but it shouldn't have anything to do with my problem of cpu usage.

Everything was fine running the 2.4 series... ~leo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
