High CPU Usage - 3.0 build 22708

Hi All,

I know this subject has been discussed before. I have used the net.low_cpu in the advanced settings and this helped!

I just thought it should be noted that on 2 out of 3 systems I have this installed on I noticed extended periods of 100% usage. However the one system, my local machine didn't have this issue with the last build, only the current one.

Systems:

P4 2.4Ghz w/HT - openSUSE 11.3: 100% until net.low_cpu checked
PIII 800Mhz - Ubuntu Server 10.10: so far relatively low cpu usage, without using the flag.
AMD Phenom 9650 Quad-Core 2.3Ghz - mixed Debian with Lenny base: 100% until flag checked

Hope this information will prove helpful!

Thanks,
Jason

I am also having this issue.  I thought it was related to running it on a 64-bit system so I reformatted, but it was not.

Also, the previous build has the 100% cpu issue as well...  This kind of sucks as the max throughput I can get with net.low_cpu on is ~15MB/s

Same problem with build 25127.
Setting net.lowcpu isn't really helping.

I've also lowered the priority of uTorrent in TaskManager, and 'set affinity' to only use 1 CPU (out of 2).
Even still, playback of music or videos is unusable as the stuttering is terrible.

In the last 15 hours, uT has used 4.5hours of CPU time.

uTorrent 2.x was perfect.
I want to keep using v3 for the web interface/mobile app, but if I can't play media, or stream to another computer, it's a no go.

Thanks,
Bob

Installed build 25137, no improvement.

Running WinXP SP3, 32bit btw.

Why are you posting about the windows version in the linux section of the forums?

FAQ and Search - Use them.
If guides ask for info, provide it before I have to ask for it.

Oops... Sorry; I searched for high CPU and saw this thread which seemed relevant; didn't notice it was under linux.

Thanks,

Hmmm this is maxing out 2 of my four cores the second I run it. Phenom X4 over clocked to 3600.  Ubuntu 32-bit 11.04 using Fluxbox Desktop Environment. For something that claims to be light weight its pretty ridiculous.

I acted same as mono2 and i got same result. I haven't enough time to analysis why this happen when we run utserver in KDE konsole, but at least, I am sure your problem will solve if you run ./utserver in normal shell.
