The Logic Off Topic list

Hi all,

you might enjoy this:

I have a song right now that maxes out the CPU to the full extent 
(without overloading, I got it just right...:-). So I thought, 
alright, let's look at the process viewer to see what that looks like 
memory-wise and just out of curiosity (I'm no expert in these things, 
just curious).

Now the process viewer tells me that Logic is using 140 to 160 
percent of my CPU. Without being a fully educated mathematician I can 
see that this is really well calculated. Does that mean someone came 
in here while I was gone and installed another 533 Mhz Chip in my 
machine? If so, I would like to stay subscribed to that service and I 
will also leave the house a bit more often so those little helpers 
have more time to get to what they do.... :-)

Anyway, just a bit funny... :-) at least to someone fiddling with 
pixels and sounds all day...

Cheers
Hans

Yeah, here, the CPU monitor in XP's Task Manager often tells a very
different story to that of Logic's - until I discovered this, I didn't 
understand
why I got overload warnings when Logic's performance meter was showing
only 25%. There's a whole bunch of CPU hits and spikes that Logic
seems to not register. Best to not rely on Emagic's performance meter
alone.
