How to replay on linux?

Hi everyone! Thanks for all of your help. I'm using SpringLobby at the moment on Linux, and I was wondering if it's possible for it to play the replay/demos that Spring automatically saves every game. If so, how? There doesn't seem to be an option on it. If not, then what other client should I use? If there is no other client, how could I disable the making of replays by Spring? Would disabling replays increase Spring's performance?
Again, thanks for all of your help!

Its not (yet) possible to watch demos using springlobby. But you can use the commandline:
or, if the demo is in your demos-folder:
And no, disabling replays won't increase performance.

Awesome Auswaschbar! I'll try it out!
Just wondering; why won't disabling the creation of demos make Spring run better? Is it that Spring creates these files after the game ends, and not during it?

Saving the commands each user makes (which is what the host sends over the network) to disk is a trivial operation. A replay is not like a fraps recording.
