This is an old issue that does not have anything to do with the Illustro skin or Rainmeter.
If anyone can please let me know why this is happening / how to fix it, that would be great! Like I say I have been using Rainmeter for years and really like it, but the CPU usage is getting to the point now where if I can't fix it I am going to have to use another tool instead. I will hear my fans kick-in (and the system is clearly doing something), Illustro skin (System.ini) shows 1-2% usage but I open task manager and the CPU is churning around at 20.
For the last 2 days it's been crazy, and has been reporting usage 20-30% lower than what's in Task Manager.In the last month month it started to get 5-10% out.However 2-3 months ago I started to notice the CPU usage was a bit out (about 5% lower than Task Manager).I've been using Rainmeter and slightly tweaked Illustro skin for the past couple of years and it has been great.Summary: Any known issues with Illustro skin around CPU usage? (and if so, any fixes?)Īdditional information / description of issue.
