Simplest way to find out if that is the problem would be to comment out the
line with the division, recompile and see if it still crashes. In that case, a
simple fix would be...
if(current > start)
{
current -= start;
cps = temp/current;
}
else cps = temp;
Personally, I'd use timer device and calculate the cps rate every second
or so rather than after every call to recv... Especially if the rate is being
displayed in a GUI.
