System Monitor and GPL

3 posts by 3 people · 07 Feb 1999 - 09 Feb 1999

I've attached a log file I made for GPL. I dialed in. Started Netscape. Logged into VROC. saw a Glen race. ALL with the system monitor running. The moment before I clicked on (Join) I started the log. I ended the log just after I got out of GPL. And the incroments are set to every second. And recording the Kernel: Processor Usage (%) I joined a 56k modem race with one other opponent (server) and did a pit out lap and one full lap. Just rounding the left hand kink before the 90 some one else joined in for a total of 3 drivers. My GPL setup is being run with ALL graphics off and at 640x480 and with the detail slider all the way to the left and sound set at 0. So, I ask you.. Is this graph showing the norm. for machines like mine? or should the graph be smaller numbers?

Hard Core! At least I know why my P2-300 makes an ordinary host. Ben

I played the Windows NT DirectX 3 pinball game and it flat-lined the PII 266MHz CPU as well. It's a good (and realistic) game but doesn't place anything like the burden on the system that GPL does. I'm afraid this that this is the nature of realtime games. Cheers, Paul
