 I have yet to here time the crossfire server has crashed the entire server
machine.  I'm presuming you are running on unix - if running under windows, then
a lot depends on how good that OS is.

 the server process does periodically crash, but doesn't take anything else down
with it.

 As for bandwidth - a lot depends on number of players.  More players obvioiusly
equals more bandwidth.  I don't think we have any really good numbers right now,
but hopefully with the improved reporting capabilities to the metaserver that I
just added to CVS, some better numbers can be determined.
