I can only assume that there are lots of new things going on under the hood of PowerSDR 2.0.16 that require more resources. 1.18.6 if probably the last version I'll be able to run with this old computer. I mainly run the Panafall display which really hogs resources. Another thing you might try is to reduce the size of the PowerSDR console and note how the CPU usage is reduced.
