        Not at all. You can still run autogames; the AI won't use the
impr-gen code, but the rest of the server code will, so every time you
call generic_city_refresh, or have combat, etc., impr-gen is in action.
I have run autogames in the past and looked at the profiles, and I don't
see a noticeable CPU hit (well, not any more, since I optimised the
combat code). Obviously I can't say how much extra CPU the AI code itself
would use with impr-gen, since it doesn't use it in its calculations
yet. I don't have these profiles any more, but could certainly generate
some if it helps.
