CPU usage in latest builds

[andy012345]

Noted since 18/6/2012 and issues I had this morning.

Tried to put kicks combat profile on and just do the first boss of act 4 on hell.

Died 5-6 times because my FPS goes from 60 without DB running to 1-2 with it running. Also a lot of stutters and FPS dropping down to 5-10 with a moderate amount of monsters on screen. Literally hitting stop on DB brings the FPS straight back to 60, so it is DB causing it.

CC was Mammon, class DH.

Quick overview of specs using a Core i5 2500k stock specs in a H67 board with 8GB of DDR3, GPU is a 9800GT (I know I need to upgrade it).

I cannot bot unless D3 is the window I have selected
And when it goes to stash it almost freezes.

I suffered a bad case of this while trying to run multiple diablos with demonbuddy running on my mac bootcamped to windows. What seems to have completely removed the lag for me was doing the following:

1- Reduced all graphics in diablo and in my graphics card's config panel (catalyst for ati)
2- In the task manager I set my Diablo 3.exe's priority to High (This seemed to have the greatest impact on it)

Safe to say I went from a slideshow party on Scorpion packs in the Core to relatively smooth sailing now.

Set your background FPS to 60+

Just looked at the A4Q1 boss fight again. DB using 70-80% of the core and D3 slowing down for it.

Didnt even think about that! Works like a charm. Very nice increase in GPH as well. Thanks

I have background FPS at 20, never have an issue.

CPU usage is bedder with .125 (but nav-server down, so u cant use it), but still crap. Up to 15% CPU or even more per DB running is hard. So its normal and if ppl tells there is no problem, because they just running one copy, the devs wont work on that. But for multibotters its still crap.

Problem is it is a problem, even with 1 bot. Once you hit act 3 you start to notice it and act 4 is just a nightmare.
