CPU Overload


Mike Carletta
 

I run? a HamIQ ,G90 /FLrig/ Wsjt-X /Grid- Tracker combo that I really enjoy. (Thanks Dave and Mike !)

Problem is when Grid tracker kicks in my mouse freezes until I complete xmitt cycle.
Power supply is supplied wall wart. 5vdc-2amp? (only interference I see is on 160 meters )

Any suggestions to improve? this problem?
Better PS, powered USB Hub, more ram ?????


 

Both WSJT-X and GridTracker are CPU-hungry programs.

I'd recommend two things:

1. Try running "htop" instead of a window while running those two programs and see CPU load.

2. Try running without GridTracker. / Or email GridTracker authors and ask them to optimize their code to make it less CPU-hungry.
