Crashing since the last patch and erratic behavior

[xerxes]

I am running into issues where showeq is crashing randomly on receiving a zone event. When it does work, it is not updating the status of all spawns. Some that are killed stay on the map, while others path and move normally and update. Sometimes, I am killing a spawn that showeq isn't showing.

This is new since the last patch.

Here's what is being spammed right before showeq crashes, for the first issue above:

For good measure, I re-pulled the latest release and recompiled with the same result.

This is indicative of the SEQ not getting all the packets that it's supposed to. Broadly speaking, you need to decrease the amount of non-EQ traffic that your SEQ box has to deal with, or you need to increase your SEQ box's ability to handle the extra traffic. The FAQ in the root of the source tree documents this and has suggestions for things that might help.
