I don't quite understand Rob's response, since he seems to imply that the entire server is single threaded whereby if one user's HL scripts lock up then the entire server is screwed.

Isn't this better served like most server systems by spawning a separate process for each user to handle their own character? So it would only be their own process which locks up - and then simple OS controls to limit CPU time on a process would resolve this technical aspect too.
