Why does the CPU usage in the UI not come close to the actual usage

Post by ovin08 »

The CPU + GPU usage seems to be anywhere between 3-5 x lower than what is shown in windows task manager?
I just built a new pc to run my cameras and other software so the hardware can handle the 3 cameras easily enough, but why would the actual BI software processor usage be so much higher than what the app is saying?

Maybe because we love adjusting things :lol:

It became obvious a long time ago that different pc's showed wildly different cpu usage in BI compared to Windows. To counteract that, Ken added a cpu fudge adjuster. See General settings/ Other/ CPU usage factor. Mine is set to 6. Maybe I should set it to 11 :shock:
