Since upgrading from the 3.4.4 beta to 3.4.5, my local limewire installation seems to have started undergoing periods of high CPU usage. Previously the machine quite happily ran along, bumping up against CPU capacity for a second or two a few times per minute, presumably while processing what few searches reach it as a leaf.

The most recent version seems to demand more and more CPU over time, eventually demanding more processing than the box it is on can provide after a few hours.

Question; has anyone else noticed this? Have you also recently moved to 3.4.5, or is the cause a change in the number and/or type of clients my gnode on the gnet is interacting with ? Any advice welcomed.

The difference between 3.4.4 and 3.4.5 is literally two lines -- and the lines didn't even change, they just moved down in the logic by two lines). ID3 information from mp3 files was ignored in 3.4.4, 3.4.5 corrected that.

Sorry about the CPU usage, but it's probably just a temporary thing.

Ta for the reply.

It must indeed just have been a busy few periods on the gnet .. time to prune my library again.
