Post From: Sierra Chart maxing out single thread CPU use only when in

Hello, I was trying to optimize my chartbook for CPU efficiency because it currently feels sluggish. The charts seem to be updating only every1-1.5 seconds (despite the software saying that the update interval is 300ms) I noticed something strange. My single core that is maxing out (#9) only goes to 100% when I click on the sierra chart window. I belive this is called being "in focus" n If I click on a window for a a different application on a different screen, then the cpu drops down to almost nothing. However, when I am focusing on another application and cpu indicates low use, the responsiveness of sierra chart is not improved. (seems like there is a function that lowers update interval when high CPU usage is detected, is this true? I have had glimpses of a snappy refresh rate that is more what I would expect, but then it seems to switch over to the 1-1.5 second refresh) Does this peculiarity indicate anything to you? Perhaps it gives an idea about how I can improve? I have read the CPU usage documentation. Of note is that my chartbook does use many transparent volume profiles, and charts linked by scrolling |
