Cryptographic signing does need a bit of CPU time now. It is actually possible to cause the server to think it is receiving a DDOS attack on a very slow CPU just because of the CPU time needed for crypto. Take a look at the crypto_* cvars.

My point is actually much less about a Pentium 2, it's actually more about pre-XP Athlons as these are the fastest CPUs that don't support SSE. Does anyone have a 1.4GHz Athlon? Are they likely to try Xonotic? What is the gameplay experience going to be like?
