Performance Question - WHY IS THIS
Performance Question - WHY IS THIS
(OP)
Hello,
I have a performance question. I am using dual monitors and starting the other day I like to keep the task manager performance graphs running on the right monitor so I can see what is happening at all times. If I am moving the mouse while the arrow is hovering on the the right screen the CPU usage ranges between 4 & 7 percent. If I move the mouse around while the arrow is hovering on the left screen with SW running the CPU usage jumps to 100 percent and stays there until I stop moving the mouse. Why would the CPU usage be different based on which screen I am hovering on??? These are my specs:
SW2007 sp3.1
----Processor----
3.60 gigahertz Intel Xeon
16 kilobyte primary memory cache
2048 kilobyte secondary memory cache
----Main Circuit Board----

RE: Performance Question - WHY IS THIS
Virtual memory
--Initial Size (MB) 4000
--Maximum Size (MB) 4050
Under the "Performance Options" under Control Panel, System Properties, Advanced------ The "Visual Effects" is set to "Adjust for best performnce"
Note: I tried the same exersize of moving the mouse around on another SW workstation here and his only goes to 30 percent when hovering over the SW screen.
