How to run HB with lowest CPU usage?

[Dominium]

Hey,

I know that I should set all setting to low, use the lowest resolution etc. but I wanna know... how should I keep the WoW window open? Should it be minimized? Should it be at the 'front' of my screen, or should it be behind eg. my web browser? I hope you know what I am talking about >.>

Cheers

WoW knows when it is minimised and has a lowered frame rate setting for when its minimised. You can manually set the frame rate. Stolen post copied below.

/console maxfps x - where x is the limit you want.
You will also need to set the limit for when wow is running in the background, since that first one is seperate from that.
/console maxfpsbk x - though you may wish to set that to a considerably lower figure than the first, since you do not need the same figure when you are not actually seeing the game.

HB should run fine with about 20FPS.

Lowest settings, lowest resolution (set gxResolution "305x245" in WTF/config - this is a few pixels too big still, but it gets the job done, i don't know the actual minimum wow window size), and capped FPS.
