oXygen 7.1 CPU utilization

Post by **vhawk** » Wed May 03, 2006 1:58 pm

Hi,

I find that all of a sudden oXygen is taking up all the CPU cycles it can get it's hands on. Even if I switch it to the backgound it is running max load on my CPU. Had to lower it's process priority to low to prevent it from killing everything else.

Any ideas why ?

Turion 64 notebook, 1Gb Ram, ATI Radion Express 200 chipset

Thanks
Andre

Hello,

See if you are in the same situation as other users and if adding the parameter -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true and restarting <oXygen/> solves the problem. On Windows the parameter must be added in the file [oXygen7.1-install-folder]/oxygen7.1.ini, on the line Virtual Machine Parameters. Otherwise describe a sequence of actions executed in <oXygen/> which produces the high CPU loading, the platform name and the Java virtual machine version used to run <oXygen/> (Help -> About -> System properties -> java.vm.version).

Regards,
Sorin

Added the noddraw option to ALL the ini files which seems to have solved the problem.

Thanks

Please note that if you want to start <oXygen/> from the command line using the startup script [oXygen7.1-install-folder]/oxygen.bat you have to add the parameter also to this script. The java command contained in this script will have to look like:

Code: Select all

java -Xmx256m -Dsun.java2d.noddraw=true -cp %CP% ro.sync.exml.Oxygen %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7
