[LiSa] CPU load issues

[Ivo Bol]

Robert,

Thanks for the tips. Also limiting the "maximum amount of sensor/device"
in the preference pane helps a bit. Unchecking "Enable non-joystick
devices" helps a lot more but causes one of my joysticks (TRUST SIGHT
FIGHTER) not to be recognised. In any case, applying your advice, an new
empty JunXion setup asks for around 15 percent of CPU, Setups that have
some programming ask for a lot more. Maximising the JunXion windows causes
it to jump to 100 percent (even more than 100 occasionally..?!) in my
computer, seems a lot.  If I get time I will rebuild my necessary patches
in the newest version of JunXion, see if that helps, and mabey reinstall
my OS...don't feel much like doing that but mabey that helps. If anyone
has more info on JunXion behavior with tiger versus Leopard I appreciate
it.

> with it, thus using extra CPU time. If you are not using a Wii in your
> setup, set this preference to 0.
>      * When the Audio Inputs are enabled in junXion's Preferences, the
> program is continuously analyzing the audio source's input signal,
> getting an audio envelope signal and pitch detection signal per input.
> This eats up considerable CPU time, so if you are not using audio
> inputs, disable this setting.
>      * When you are not using the Quicktime synth, disable it, since
> it will also save you some CPU time.
>      * In general, when you have 'analog' input sensors connected to
> Actions that send out MIDI continuous control data, make sure to check
> the 'only send changes' box in the Action's 'output event' pane. This
> will thin out the MIDI data stream considerable, thus saving you
> valuable bandwidth and keeping it more relaxed for your Midi receiving
> application.

> Hopefully this is helpfull to some of you.
