Is there any way to reduce that polling (features that I can disable)?

The spikes are usually more like 7%-10%, and usually last for 15-30 seconds (best guess, I'm just eyeballing here with System Explorer). ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/90-beta-3-cpu-usage-downgrade/?ID=8b1664a2-5153-4202-ad00-4c472eae5812#5 Tue, 20 Jun 2017 23:17:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/90-beta-3-cpu-usage-downgrade/?ID=8b1664a2-5153-4202-ad00-4c472eae5812#5 DisplayFusion Ok, 1-3% is pretty normal due to the background polling we need to do to keep everything operational. The 10-15% is a bit more concerning. When that happens, does it go up to 10-15% and stay there, or does it just blip for a second or two? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/90-beta-3-cpu-usage-downgrade/?ID=8b1664a2-5153-4202-ad00-4c472eae5812#4 Tue, 20 Jun 2017 18:05:39 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/90-beta-3-cpu-usage-downgrade/?ID=8b1664a2-5153-4202-ad00-4c472eae5812#4 DisplayFusion Not an issue with beta 9, as with 8.1.2, issue still occurs. Constantly uses about 4%. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/90-beta-3-cpu-usage-downgrade/?ID=8b1664a2-5153-4202-ad00-4c472eae5812#3 Thu, 15 Jun 2017 18:00:59 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/90-beta-3-cpu-usage-downgrade/?ID=8b1664a2-5153-4202-ad00-4c472eae5812#3 DisplayFusion Downgraded to 8.1.2 on 2 machines. Will monitor and report. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/90-beta-3-cpu-usage-downgrade/?ID=8b1664a2-5153-4202-ad00-4c472eae5812#2 Thu, 15 Jun 2017 17:45:40 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/90-beta-3-cpu-usage-downgrade/?ID=8b1664a2-5153-4202-ad00-4c472eae5812#2 DisplayFusion That's strange! No special steps needed before rolling back to 8.1.2, just install it over top of the beta. Can you post an update after you've rolled back to let me know if the CPU usage issue goes away? ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/90-beta-3-cpu-usage-downgrade/?ID=8b1664a2-5153-4202-ad00-4c472eae5812 Wed, 14 Jun 2017 18:05:25 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/90-beta-3-cpu-usage-downgrade/?ID=8b1664a2-5153-4202-ad00-4c472eae5812 DisplayFusion Since 9.0 Beta (not sure which one, but I'm on Beta 3), DisplayFusion.exe is constantly using about 3% CPU, but sometimes as high as 10-15%.

Do I need to know anything before downgrading to latest version 8? ]]>
