Why does teamspeak start so many procs?

now it has 18 running, why? i don't see the point in this... if a game server can run a single process for over hundreds of users, why does a simple voice chat have to run so many freakin processes, this thing is a memory hog!

I have a great idea how about you stop..... and put some system info in your post and then someone might help

how about i stop? stop what? stop asking questions on a forum?

i gave you all the information needed, in fact... i didn't need to give you any information to answer my question. if you didn't understand the first time, i'll ask again with more detail.

i am running one teamspeak server on a linux platform. currently, it is running 9 background processes for one server. what i'm asking is... WHY does it need to run 9 processes? a game server for example... grand theft auto multiplayer, battlefield, etc. only runs one process and supports a handful of users/connections.

can someone shed some light on this?

You know the forum has a search utility, you could have found the answer yourself.

For the lazy, just a search in the linux forum for "processes" returns the following;

TS is multi-threading, what you are seeing are multiple threads and it is working as intended.

Why do people always think they are the first to ask a question?
