Title: why do I get +10/15/20% CPU usage with video streaming... when AIS is installed
Post by: Hermite15 on April 20, 2011, 08:51:48 PM

... leading to + 10 to 15°C CPU temp... and this is just when AIS is present. Absolutely reproducible, with CPU peaks while/if doing anything else in parallel (note that the +15/20°C happen without doing anything else).

 sounds like dwm.exe (desktop window manager) is "may be" behind that... the web shield doesn't scan videos, the file shield doesn't seem to interfere either, so what is it? thanks.

edit: I'm pretty sure that I posted something very similar several months ago... anyway, the issue is there again and I have no idea how to get rid of it.
