A couple of days ago i installed windows 7 on my pc, everything is cool until i saw that when you click the close "x" button on the gs or login console the console close instantly. Any idea why this happens?

Some admins use to close their server using this X and then cancelling. This causes an "OOG restart"

But in win 7 these processes don't give you an option to cancel the "kill", win 7 kills them without confirmation ^^

Maybe offtop...
After recieving sigterm, server starts shutdown process.. Saving data takes away too much time... around ~ 10-15 min. It is normal?
This problem exists as in windows box, as in debian & gentoo. Also do not depends from hardware.

Yep, saving data by trade controller takes away a long time, so it can make a problem when i need quick restart on live server. If it is normally, then no questions from me

Just intresting why this process takes away some mins on clean test server w/o players. Sometimes all processes takes just 2-5 secs, sometimes not...

saving of trade items is fine when you got players on your server and the trade items are updated when the players buy at shops. the refresh intervall for the items is imho 1 hour, so if you start clean server and the first restart takes long, the next restart until 1 hour won't take long anymore.
