+--- Thread: CPU Usage With TLB V 2.20.15 RC2 - High Cpu Usage With Latest Beta (/thread-1275.html)
- Scratched - 02-25-2004
Hi,
I've recently updated to the latest beta and I have noticed a high cpu consuption ony my p4 2.4Ghz. It varies between 7-15% on the explorer.exe procces. Without the TLB the cpu usage drops to 0%
I've tried without plugins the usage dropped to 7 - 10%
Any Ideas?

No problems on my setup. Explorer stays between 0% and 3% most of the time with 3 TLB version 2.2.0.15 RC2 launch bars and 4 Weather Monitors, Network, Drive Space, Turn Off Computer, and CD Control plugins.

Same results here... CPU runs at 0% - 3% when idle...
BBFI, glad to see I'm not the only plugin freak

HorusUK,
TLB without plugins is like a day without sunshine.
BTW - I also use the spacer plugins.

Try to delete plugin one by one. I guess one of plugins takes time.

Hi,
I have come to the conclusion that the plugin Media Control has something to do with the Cpu consuption. When I delete the plugin the cpu of explorer.exe process drops to 0-2%
Anyone else has the same problem?

I mentioned it last year in this thread, but it got no replies...
A quick test with the latest Media Control plugin version (3.1) showed that the 'extra' CPU usage is only very low (total 3-4%, where it takes 1-2% if the plugin is hidden).
Also check the auto-hide feature, then it will only show the plugin when needed!
