You think it's some automatic saving of the replay that causes the freezes?
Or swapping required for the replay?

I don't know how to fully disable the replay, but you might try setting this
in core.ini:

[Replay]
replayMemoryOverride=0              ; Kbytes of replay memory to use

I've never tried this, but it's the only thing I can think of

  There's also a tweak that can be done, so that only the last session is
saved.  I.e., after you're done with practice, memory dumps it, and saves
qualifying, then dumps that, etc.

  Can't remember how to do it though :(  Paul, you out there ?

That's in player.ini

[Misc]
clear_replay_each_session=0

If your server is automatically saving replays and you don't want it to,
look in the "player.ini" file, and set this line to "0":

[SERVER]
auto_save_replay=0

If you want to save replays, but only the race and NOT practice, qual, or
warmup, in the same "player.ini" have a "1" in this line:

[Misc]
clear_replay_each_session=1

Is it possible for _players_ to set auto save replay ?

The reply "session" setting works for players, but I don't know of any way
to automatically save player replays.

I seem to remember talk with N4 on setting the replay size to 1024 to avoid
freezing.

Anyone elaborate?

Willard.

You can set a particular size limit to your replay buffer.  The setting is
in your "core.ini" file in your N2002 root directory:

[Replay]
replayMemoryOverride=0

The default is "0".  You can set it to any size that you want.  For example,
my server is set to 120000 to capture replays up to 120 megs.

If you have a small amount of system memory, you may want to play with the
settings like "1024" and see if it cures your freezing problem. (not likely,
IMO)
