Increased CPU Usage

Post by davidcbittner »

With this recent update 5.9.9.11 that I applied yesterday my cpu usage has almost tripled. I had my CPU usage down to around 12% afer updating my cameras months ago and add the sub stream profile make sure it was there and that I could see they were working in the status under the general tab. I looked after the update yesterday and now it is back up to 35%/45% anyone else notice the jump in CPU usage after applying the update that came out yesterday?

Any suggestions?

I am running 5.9.9.11 and am NOT seeing any high CPU usage, this system only has 5 cameras with very little motion on them as they are all indoor with the exception of one that is outside looking at a quiet road. I have two other systems but they are still on earlier versions, I might get a chance to upgrade them on the weekend, one of them has 18 cameras, but still has very little activity as it is at a location surrounded by 76 acres of bush, down a 1.5 mile long road!

Is it actual cpu% or the BI5 reading of it ? I had to change the BI5 cpu% multiplier a couple of versions ago.

I've seen higher CPU usage and it seems to be related to when using the web ui (must be the encoding). But I've constantly playing with things, so I cannot say it is due to an update or just me mucking with things.

I verified the CPU usage with task manager, not the % reported by BI (but they are almost identical).
