Can I adjust for this on power management I have it
SpeedStep or Cool-n-Quiet technologies are not conducive to real-time

Sadly, on the processors with TurboBoost you have to enable Speedstep to get

Jeff,
I'm surprised the 2.8 GHz uses so much CPU time. Have you optimized

I just hooked up my SDR to a laptop this weekend (I normally run a
floor-mount PC), and I'm seeing some CPU percentage numbers that have me
scratching my head.
The CPU percent number fluctuates over about a 10 second cycle, and goes
from a low of about 15% to a high of around 70%. This cycle

Thanks, Tim Ken, for your replies.
Yesterday I tried turning off the panadapter (and also
reducing the display's FPS), and, surprisingly, that
didn't seem to change the cyclical nature of the mips
consumption. (I'll have to experiement again this
evening and see if there's an overall change,

Jeff,
Besides Intel's Speed-Step stuff, be sure to turn off the
wireless/bluetooth, infrared port, along with the serial port (if it
has one). Biggest CPU burst program I found is Spyware detectors
and anti-virus programs. Turn those off.Also try turning off the
panadapter, some of
I had a similar problem, and what stopped it was the stopping of all
unnecessary process that run in Windows. My PC started at 50% spiking
to 75%, after the change it's now about 7% with no spikes. This is on
a Dual processor Pentium III 1GHz PC. A Dell 220 Precision workstation.

I had that happen to me, also. I could not find the culprit using the
task manager, so I ran MSCONFIG under the run command and rebooted with
a minimum configuration, i.e. most of the auto starting applications
were not loaded. The problem went away, so I again tried to find the
Jeff,
I'm surprised the 2.8 GHz uses so much CPU time. Have you optimized
XP per the guide? I am running a 1.8 GHz Sony VAIO Lap Top with XP
Home and a PreSonus FireBox. The the CPU runs 6 to 22 percent but
usually stays between 11 and 19 percent, and it updates once every

I've been using 1.6.3 beta with an old hand-me-down laptop. It
works fine. But I'm getting tempted by all the talk about the new
fancy waterfall display. Will newer versions sink my poor old 1GHz
Opteron? Have any of you noticed a change in CPU % as you've
marched along the upgrade
