There are some advanced settings you can try enabling that might help a bit:

• Disable Application Hooks
• Disable WMI Polling
• Run as a Low Priority Process

Hope that helps! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c#6 Tue, 06 Aug 2019 23:06:33 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c#6 DisplayFusion Disabling the multi-monitor taskbar dropped my CPU from around 2.6% to 1.1%. This is significant since my CPU fan kicks in when the total CPU load is above 5%.

However, not having the taskbar on the 2nd monitor is not that desirable for me. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c#5 Tue, 06 Aug 2019 17:17:20 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c#5 DisplayFusion Excellent, glad to hear it! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c#4 Tue, 06 Aug 2019 06:06:16 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c#4 DisplayFusion Hi again

It looks like it works perfect now

Thanks for a perfect tool ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c#3 Fri, 02 Aug 2019 05:45:57 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c#3 DisplayFusion Thanks for the quick answer

I have disabled the features, and givie you a status when i have tested a bit more. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c#2 Thu, 01 Aug 2019 15:27:49 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c#2 DisplayFusion If you disable the multi-monitor taskbars and titlebar buttons, does that have any effect on the CPU usage? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c Thu, 01 Aug 2019 14:13:08 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/slow-and-continuous-cpu-load/?ID=8158ffea-cdce-4921-93c5-82d014fc384c DisplayFusion Hi

I am totaly new to DisplayFusion, and currently testing it, for my work we are in the process of buying 49" SuperWide screens, and Display fusion looks like the perfect choice to create usable work areas on this screen.

But when I have installed DisplayFusion, and made a profile with 3-5 splits, the cpu load for DisplayFusion is always arround 5% of my CPU I7-8550U and everything is working slow and lacking.
When I uninstall DisplayFusion again everything works in normal speed.

But I have not found any way to get the speed up to normal, is this normal or is there any way to gain speed with DisplayFusion installed?
