I use Dreamweaver CS3 as I am currently creating websites for friends and family. But, when I go to use it, it eats up from 80-100% of my CPU. I have done a search on Google and found that there are many people that have the same problem. Is this a bug or something that Adobe need to fix? I have an Intel Pentium Dual Core Processor with 1Gb or RAM and Windows Vista. Yes, I know 1Gb isn't enough but I use a 4Gb Flash Drive as Readyboost. Thanks in advance -------------------- |

Hello pcmaddeanp,
As far as I'm aware Macromedia's products are all processor intensive. While I have no experience with Dreamweaver itself, Flash and Acrobat are resource hogs. I would suspect this is a problem with Macromedia and not your system. A CPU is given tasks to perform continuously If you open up the Task Manager and select the process tab you can see all the tasks the CPU has to perform. A sophisticated processor will work one request and then move on to another a Dual core processor is capable of performing 2 tasks simultaneously. Which leads to the question of, how many processes is your system running? and What RAM (model) does the system have? I would suggest that the processes that are not needed be ended in order to facilitate a faster task switching process. Or http://sniptools.com/tipstricks/speed-up-d...e-boosting-tips might be of some use. Wrong version but principle is the same, also don't follow suggestion #2. -------------------- Regards
Alan |
