Please share the computers' specs.

If you have less than 256mb of RAM you shouldn't even try to run a server let alone the game at the same time. This gets worse if your RAM is shared with your integrated graphics or low-end video card.

Agreed.

You need at least a 2GHz CPU and 756mb of ram.

That's what got to do with the OP's question?

Very slow CPU for the amount of RAM it has, though I doubt it's the problem. Don't play on the server you host from unless it's >2.4ghz and has multiple processing cores and the video ram is standalone rather than dependent.

EDIT: I played Tremulous on my other computer (my primary server) which has a 2.4ghz single-core, 512mb RAM and 256mbVideoRam while the high-speed 120gb HDD did most of the work. Played fine, dunno what your problem is.

Sorry I can't help more.

In my experience compiling the qvm to use shared objects instead of the usual monolithic build cuts down on the cpu and ram usage.
