gpuPlotGenerator uses too much CPU
-
So I finally got the gpuPlotGenerator to run on my Linux machine. Now I face a very ironic problem: the gpuPlotGenerator stresses my CPU so extremely that I can't use my system anymore. BUT when I previously used the CPU plotter which put all my CPU threads up to 100% all the time I could still use every basic program normally without any lags.
What is happening here?(reducing Stagger size to a minimum amount didn't help at all.)
-
instead of using gpu your using cpu to translate gpu instruction. are you using wine?
-
@ZapbuzZ No, using normal Linux instruction for the program.
-
it just appears to be using cpu than gpu perhaps changing plotters device number in configuration that maybe you have misconfigured it to use the cpu than gpu and plotter thinks cpu is gpu due to opencl support of cpu
-
sorry for the acronym soup :)
-
@ZapbuzZ I checked the plotters device number beforehand and it showed only the GPU in the list. But I will check again, to be sure.
I checked again and it only shows the CUDA platform, no CPU.

@luxe maybe better help you with this issue but even on windows machines it can become non responsive when plotting is why i use cpu plotter than gpu plotter
