even now the server is dead slow due the gateway.php cron
Code:
xyz 18394 11.2 3.6 86660 74972 ? Ss 00:00 25:39 /usr/bin/php /home/xyz/public_html/forum/gateway.php
i have also noticed, sometimes gateway file (but stop leeching from news server) never get killed automatically, on next cron another process is created...
This is a great hack, but someone need to update and optimize the code.

I haven't had the same problem, but I would recommend running it more than once a day. I run it every 10 minutes. Otherwise you'll have to download a significantly more amount of data
