RPCEmu's background level of CPU activity here is high: it's been running now for about 4 hours without my using the machine until now, and the average is 167 mips, about half the maximum achievable on this laptop. TaskUsage is recording zero activity, by contrast. The laptop's cooling fan is intermittently cutting in, and its CPU activity varies between 29-40% according to Windows Task Manager.
I've tried setting 'Reduced CPU Usage' in Settings, which successfully controls CPU background activity, but also causes desktop icons to stop reacting to mouse clicks consistently (normal, non-reduced CPU usage mouse behaviour is exemplarily consistent, by contrast). Secondly, once set, 'Reduced CPU Usage'is very difficult to unset: you have to open Settings as RPCEmu loads but before the desktop appears, otherwise the setting persists. My setup here is RPCEmu 0.9.1 running RISC OS 5.24 on a Windows 7 Acer laptop. Network connection is enabled and working. Disconnecting the network and quitting iconbar apps does not have any noticeable effect on CPU background activity. Is this a known bug, or is there another workaround? -- George _______________________________________________ RPCEmu mailing list [email protected] http://www.riscos.info/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rpcemu
