I know this is a tired subject, but I'm another victim of the "100% CPU" problem. Though everyone else seemed to have it with AMD cards, and I have an nVidia 9500 running on amd64 Linux.


It is actually using the GPU since it goes up to 5.5 Mhps (my CPUs only go up to 2 Mhps on their own, also I was running minerd at the same time on those CPUs), but still uses a large chunk of my CPU (1 whole CPU), so it's not that I have somehow selected the CPU driver.

I've tried playing with some of the settings, turning off vectors only made it worse (it ate 1 CPU and a bit of another), changing the value of frames to 0 or 30 had no difference.
I have tried running it without minerd hogging the CPUs but that made no difference…


If I get this to work I'll be able to pull off over 13 Mhps (4×2Mhps + 5.5 Mhps - rounding), but if the script itself takes up a whole CPU the minerd's performance halves, so I get hardly 9-10 Mhps.

Oh, and hi!, BTW ;-)
