[TA]Viztech 2008-01-19 14:47:23 | I finally got around to upgrading clients today and discovered CPU throttling. ![]() We have been running the client at background priority (using 'Priority for background running' to B in config.txt) to limit lag of applications, but we have noticed that we have more lag in our machines than we used to. Where I am sure this is due to anti-virus and anti-spyware software more than anything, I decided to set throttling at 90% to see if we can regain some response. Things seem a little better so far, but I thought I would ask if any other users had experience with throttling? Thanks viz |
[TA]Viztech 2008-01-19 14:50:41 | Hmmm, used refresh and got a DP! Sorry about that! I just wanted to add that these are single core, Athlon XP systems running XPSP2. I'll upgrade one of these days... viz |
Stephen Brooks 2008-01-19 17:28:12 | I've not really experienced any increased lag when running Muon1, even in the default "L" mode at 100% CPU. The only thing I can think of is that perhaps you've got a small-ish amount of RAM (256 or 512M![]() ![]() |

[TA]Viztech 2008-01-20 00:28:13 | Plenty of RAM, just a slow machine it would seem. Throttling did not appear to make a lot of diference in performance after all. In fact, stopping Muon, anti-virus, anti-spyware and firewall did not make much difference either, so I need to look for other causes, upgrade or reload. Where is throttling useful, laptops? viz |

[TA]JonB 2008-06-04 02:04:30 | Is there anyone in particular in India you wish to throttle? Have you had a bad Help Desk call to Bangalore? |
