I noticed that the latest release of Mythruna has jumped considerably on the usage scale. It used to run at about 25-45% now it is staying at about 67%. I have checked it with 2 tools so far trying to track down what has caused this increase. This box is a dual core and it appears both cpu's are being used at 60+%. Changed Afinnity to 1 core on the cpu and the usage dropped to 48% and game ran smooth. This is a Windows XP box I game on too, so that may be another thing. I have a few other games I have to set Afinnity on to be able to play. Ok checked it after 2 minutes the 48% is based on both CPU's. The cpu I set Afinnity to is at 100% usage. So I ma gonna run a few test tomorrow when I am more in the place to do this mentally. Trying to weed out the obvious if anyone else has run across this?

Running some standard tests on a single player game (if you aren't already) can be a way to weed out other variables.  It will also let you directly compare the old and new versions since the old version will no longer connect to the server.
