CPU Usage
Hi, I've just installed WCG on my laptop. It's running the CPU (3.2ghz) at 100%, which is both noisy and in danger of melting the keyboard!
How can I limit the cpu usage?

cheers

cool Re: CPU Usage
There are third-party utilities. ThrottleWatch is supposed to be concerned only with temperature, slowing down the CPU to reduce temperature. ThreadMaster allows you to set a percentage CPU usage for a thread. Use Google to read their descriptions and decide if either matches your desire.
