Limit CPU usage
in [Windows Performance]
|
From: Poppe on 17 Dec 2009 03:10 Hello Is there a way i can run a process, and limit it's CPU usage with some in-built windows command? Or maybe run it with low priority? Can you recommend some external program that enables me to do this? I have a problem with a certain process running over the roof, causing CPU problems. Thanks!

Right click on the task and choose "Set Priority" and select a priority from the slide-out. Questor

Hello and thanks for suggestions Does anybody know how to do this from the command line? The situation is that the users are very basic, and they don't know how to use task manager. So i should somehow automate the process priority setting, so they don't have to do it manually. Maybe use vbscript or something? |
