(I even patched my 3.3.6 XFree with glx ...) TfH wsanborn@uswest.net on 23/02/2000 19:27:27 Please respond to wsanborn@uswest.net To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG cc: (bcc: Thierry HERBELOT/FR/ALCATEL) Subject: Re: xmms 1.0.1 uses 95% cpu When running xmms I noticed the same CPU hogging trait. I was definitely not happy with this. But I also noticed, when running 'top', that it had a 'niceness' level of 90, and whenever something else needed more CPU time, xmms would give some up. I think, due to the niceness level it's using, it will take whatever idle CPU time the machine has. I'm using an AWE-64 with the SVGA server, and I have no visualization problems at all. I think I'm using the legacy drivers (snd0, sbxvi, sbmidi, adlib).
