But with 2.5.1 on OSX the game will randomly freeze a few seconds into the *second* match played. The first match goes OK, then the map voting, then the new map loads, then the countdown: 3... 2... 1... BEGIN and *poof* everything stops. Or not, sometimes it works just fine.
I've also had it freeze while just spectating.
The game keeps playing for others of course. They kill my now soulless body still in the game and the server still shows me as connected when clearly I'm not (ultimately the connection times out). The client on the Mac is locked up solid, necessitating ssh-ing in from another machine and killing the Nexuiz process (twice) to get the Mac back under user control.
I should note that I've only seen this behavior when connected to my own dedicated Linux server. Of course since it's random that doesn't necessarily mean anything, it's just easier to set fraglimit to something like "3" and play some bots on my own server

So, I get that this isn't a lot to go on. I've tried a lot: I reinstalled 2.5.1 on both the client and the server, reset my config.cfg, I tried keeping logs on both the client and the server but they don't seem to show anything. The logging just stops when the client freezes.
Can someone give me some hints to help debug this?
