100% CPU Usage with 3.0 Final Version.

Post by Peppino79 » Mon Nov 26, 2012 11:28 pm

I am continuing my testing on version 3.0 Final.

I noticed that, with 3.0 Final open, the service “syslogd” (on OSX Leopard PPC) does get CPU consumption up to 100%, making the machine unusable.

This has never happened with the RC2 version.

It’s possible to have a copy of RC2 while they investigated the problem? Unfortunately I have not kept a copy.

I'm unable to reproduce this here on our 9 year old PowerPC. Can you give me some indication about the system's processing power and Memory (see About This Mac)?

Meanwhile, I've e-mailed you a direct download link for QCAD 3 RC2 for PowerPC.

I found the cause of the problem. From version 3.0 RC2 to 3.0 Final without deleting the old file QCAD3.ini is the problem.

Deleting it and starting from a clean install the problem disappears. For now I do not reappeared since.
