I have just installed the new 6.22 SMP beta2 client and I'm having problems. My CPU use is now 50% where in the past it was 100%. I have set affinity to 0,1 with 2 for windows and GPU using core 3.

Core 3 runs at a steady 100%

Core 0 & 1 runs up and down from 0 to 80% (both cores should run steady at 100%)

When I run -config there seems to be some new questions such as

Disable CPU affinity lock (no)

Additional client parameters

Does anyone have any experience of using this new client and offer me some advice as I'm sure that cores 0 % 1 should run at 100%.

Thanks

I first tried adding the flag to the short cut target box without much luck. You will need to enter -config and add the flags in the advance options (Additional client parameters), which works.
