Control the CPU Utilization during Application Execution written C#.Net

[apondu]

Hi,

This is Govardhan, i am working on C#.Net.

I have a problem and i am sure most of them would have come across
this

problem. I have written a application in C#.Net. It does lot of work
so i know

it'll take time for the execution. But my problem is it starts
utilizing 98 to

100% of the CPU. I needed to know is there any way where in i can
control the

amount of CPU utilization for my application and restrict it to use
say some 60

-70% of the CPU. Actually when it starts utilizing 98 to 100% of the
CPU, i get

a feel that my system is hung-up, so i wanted to avoid this.

Is there any other solution to this problem.

If someone knows the solution for this problem then can u share it.

I am waiting for the response, this is my mail-id (e-mail address removed)

Thanks for the help and suggestions.

Regards,
Govardhana.

Well you set the thread's priority to BelowNormal / Lowest.

Alternatively do not execute tight loops and call Thread.Sleep(milliseconds)

Hi,

I have done tht, even thn the cpu utilization is 100%. Is there any
other solution for this...

Thanks for the response

Hello,

lowering the thread/process priority will not stop the process from using
all available cpu cycles. But if another program runs at a higher priority,
it will get relative more cpu cycles than your app.

As Henning said, using thread priority is not going to stop 100% CPU usage.
It just means that if there is any other thread / program that is running at
a higher priority then it will get precedence.

The only other thing is to make sure you do not use tight loops and use
Thread.Sleep(timeInMilliseconds)

Maybe if you change the priority of the actual thread, it can solve your
problem...
