I noticed in your Troubleshooting info that you're also running TeamViewer. Would you be able to try exiting TeamViewer, and then restarting DisplayFusion to see if that makes any difference on the CPU/memory usage? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#28 Wed, 29 Apr 2015 16:15:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#28 DisplayFusion Disabling the system tray does nothing. If i dont have any windows on that monitor the cpu goes up to 6% while before it went to 10-15% but the memory usage is still high and display fusion runs slowly. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#27 Tue, 28 Apr 2015 21:00:51 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#27 DisplayFusion Ok, thanks! If you enable only the taskbar, but disable the system tray on it (right-click > Multi-Monitor Taskbar > System Tray > Disabled), does that make any difference?

Also, does it make a difference as to whether or not there are any programs running on that monitor? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#26 Sat, 25 Apr 2015 15:24:37 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#26 DisplayFusion if I enable the Alt-Tab thing it will not go up. enabling only the Taskbar will make the CPU go up. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#25 Fri, 24 Apr 2015 17:53:27 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#25 DisplayFusion Ok, and if you just re-enable one of them, does the CPU usage go back up? Or does it only go up if both are enabled? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#24 Thu, 23 Apr 2015 17:06:44 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#24 DisplayFusion Well Disabling those does help. both cpu usage and ram is low.

If you disable the Taskbars (Settings > Taskbar > uncheck Enable multi-monitor taskbar) completely, as well as the Alt+Tab Handler (Settings > Window Management > set the Alt+Tab drop-down to Disabled), does that make a difference? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#22 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 20:47:31 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#22 DisplayFusion Time Is around 21:40, the problem still persists ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#21 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 13:01:28 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/display-fusion-slowdown/?ID=2ef05e6c-5774-498c-bf05-abf7697a15e9#21 DisplayFusion Ok, we've just posted 7.2 Beta 4.

Here are the steps:

• On the Troubleshooting tab, change the Logging drop-down to "L1: Log Minimal"
• Restart DisplayFusion
• Reproduce the high CPU usage and note the time so we'll know where to check in the log file
• Send us the DisplayFusion.log and DebugInfo.html files (can be found by clicking the Open Log button on the Troubleshooting tab)
• Disable debug logging after sending the log

Edit: after leaving it for a bit more time going without the start button and the system tray the CPU went up to 14% and the ram at 127MB ]]>
