Reader X doesn't run fully, uses 25% CPU and hangs
Whenever I click on a pdf, the Reader starts but it's running fully. It draws the toolbars but not the body. The background is still whatever app is behind it. CPU is about 25% and the Reader is not responding. It hangs. Another pdf reader from another vendor works fine. I installed the latest version.
Using Windows 7 64 bit with SP1.
I have had issues with Adobe Reader X hanging (not responding) due to a conflict between an antivirus program and the Adobe Reader X Protected Mode/Protected Viewer sandbox features.
Adobe has a recent(2012-01-09)KB article http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/860/cpsid_86063.html entitled "Protected Mode troubleshooting". There is a similar article (2011-09-12) http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/901/cpsid_90161.html entitled Protected View troubleshooting.
khwajakhurram replied to my query suggesting unchecking the default Adobe Reader X Preferences >3D & Multimedia> "Enable hardware rendering for legacy video cards" setting and this solves the issues!
What is surprising is that Adobe Reader X's 3D & Multimedia settings report that the alternative preferred renderer modes are either software or DirectX9 .....on a Vista machine with DirectX11.
The video card on this machine is definitely not legacy but a recent quality Nvidia produced card. That is also the case on the other machines with the issue I have reported.
I went a step further and I have found that performance is vastly improved by changing from the default preferred renderer mode of DirectX9 to the alternative Software setting.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/860/cpsid_86063.html mentions that "certain configurations of anti-virus software that have not yet white-listed AcroRd32.exe" are "Unsupported configurations for Reader running in Protected Mode". Therefore I have also excluded AcroRd32.exe from virus scanning.
I am now able to use both Adobe Reader X's Protected Mode and Advanced Security without issue and performance is vastly improved. I am certain that your issues will also be improved.

Hello,
According to the ColdFusion Forums my problem is not a new one but I still want
to post it with the hope to get some kind of answer.
I'm are running the following system:
CF 4.5 Enterprise Server
SiteMinder 6.0
IIS 5.0
MS SqlServer 2005
Both the CF and database server are Win2000 SP4.
About every one hours the CF server uses 100% CPU and from than on it is
impossible to log into the application. The site is still available though.
After restarting the CF service everything works fine until.....
I do not know what triggers this but I suspect it has something to do with
SiteMinder and logging onto the application.
The site has to go live on Monday so you can imagine the pressure to get
this fixed before the weekend.
Greetings,
JilaniJilani, you mention that this seems connected to SiteMinder. Do you mean you have your own version of SiteMinder, separate from the built-in one that came with CF 4 and 5? I wonder if there could be a conflict between them. Why are you using the full SiteMinder? And do you really need it?
More curious is that you say this spike happens every hour. Can you confirm if it's every 67 minutes, specifically? If so, then I would assert that this could be a problem related to the client variable purge process, which I discuss here:
http://www.carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2006/10/4/bots_and_spiders_and_poor_CF_perfo rmance
But that may not be the issue if simply enabling/disabling the siteminder service will immediately recreate your problem....unless somehow the DB used by SiteMinder is the same DB used for client variables. Do you have any datasources listed in the CF Admin page for client variables? Any chance there's a connection between them and siteminder?
/charlie
PS This whole issue of client variables and how they can hurt you unexpectedly is something I'll dicuss this Thursday at noon US EDT, when I present "Clients and Sessions and Crashes, Oh My", to the online ColdFusion Meetup: www.coldfusionmeeetup.com. -

Firefox keeps freezing and using 50% cpu and memory usage shoots up real fast and carries on going till it uses up all there is left. Most of the time it's when there's an auto update of anything addon, plugin or ff but not just neccessarily then! I find out it's happened when there's been an update after i restart and an extra webpage comes up with the particular addon/plugin/ff update. I have to restart most of time because nothing sorts it out. I'm using windows xp with the latest update of ff 13.0.1 it's not this version because it's been happening for a while. And it never started when i added a particular addon or plugin or when i added a new app to my pc either. Any idea as to what this may be or how i'd sort it out?
CheersMaybe disable hardware acceleration? This article should help: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-uses-too-much-memory-ram

Media Encoder only using 15% CPU, and system slows to cement
Not sure what's going on, but trying to export from Premiere CS6 to Media Encoder and very basic 640x360 H264 4 minute clips are taking 40 minutes, only using 15-30% CPU (on 2011 Macbook Pro 2.3 core i7), and the system slows to a cement crawl (had to stop it just to type this post). Nothing else is using any CPU and RAM is 25% free.
I don't even know where to begin to troubleshoot. Tried restarting is all so far. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
BrandonIt seems there is a problem with the Mercury Playback Engine on my MBP. I turned it off and switched to software only mode, and now CPU is screaming at 750% on export and estimated time is about 8 times faster

IAC iview doesn't run when change to another and come back
Hi,
I've defined an IAC iview tha calls an ITS services (parameters ~webgui = 1, ~generatedynpro = 1, ~simpletransaction = 1, ~transaction = ).
First time I run this iview, it runs well. I run another iview and when I come back to the first one (IAC iview), it doesn't run, it shows me a r/3 screen that let me access r/3 menu, so it doesn't run my ITS service.
I'm using ECC (ITS integrated) and I'm not using SSO.
Any idea. All contributions will be appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
Best regards,
Iván.Hello Iván,
I think you meant ~singletransaction right? If so please remove this parameter and try again.

How to kill Forms Runaway Process using 95% CPU and running for 2 hours.
We had a situation at E-Business Suite customer (using Oracle VM server) where some of Form processes were not being cleared by form timeout settings automatically.
Also when user exits the form session from front end, the linux form process (PID) and DB session did not exit properly, so they got hung.
They were spiking CPU and memory usage and causing e-business suite to perform slowely and ultimately causing VM host to reboot the production VM guest (running on Linux).
We could see the form processes (PIDs) using almost 100% cpu with "top" command and running for a long time.
Also we verified those Form Sessions did not exist in the application itself.
ie. Using from Grid Control -> OAM-> Site Map -> Monitoring (tab) -> "Form Sessions".
It means that we could safely kill that form process from Linux using "kill -9 <PID>" command.
But that required a continuous monitoring and manual DBA intervention as customer is 24x7 customer.
So, I wrote a shell script to do the following;
• Cron job runs every half an hour 7 days a week which calls this shell script.
• Shell script runs and tries to find "top two" f60webmx processes (form sessions) using over 95% cpu with 2 minutes interval.
• If no process is found or CPU% is less than 95%, it exits and does nothing.
• If top process is found, it searches for its DB session using apps login (with hidden apps password file - /home/applmgr/.pwd).
a. If DB session is NOT found (which means form process is hung), it kills the process from unix and emails results to <[email protected]>
b. If DB session is found, it waits for 2 hours so that form process times automatically via form session timeout setting.
It also emails the SQL to check the DB session for that form process.
c. If DB session is found and it does not timeout after 2 hours,
it kills the process from unix (which in turn kills the DB session). Output is emailed.
This are the files required for this;
1. Cron job which calls the shell script looks like this;
# Kill form runaway process, using over 95% cpu having no DB session or DB session for > 2hrs
00,30 * * * * /home/applmgr/forms_runaway.sh 2>&1
2. SQL that this script calls is /home/applmgr/frm_runaway.sql and looks like;
set head off
set verify off
set feedback off
set pagesize 0
define form_client_PID = &1
select count(*) from v$session s , v$process p, FND_FORM_SESSIONS_V f where S.AUDSID=f.audsid and p.addr=s.paddr and s.process='&form_client_PID';
3. Actual shell script is /home/applmgr/forms_runaway.sh and looks like;
# Author : Amandeep Singh
# Description : Kills runaway form processes using more than 95% cpu
# and Form Session with no DB session or DB session > 2hrs

If you have the same problem with some other unix and DB processes, the script can be easily modified and used.
But use this with thorough testing first (by commenting out <kill -9 $PID1> lines.
Good luck.

HELP: Premiere Pro CC not using all CPU and RAM during rendering and export
Hello,
I am using Premiere Pro CC on a Windows 7. My timeline is quite simple with two videos, one with the movie (mpeg) and the other with the subtitles (avi).
When I render the sequence in PP or export, the rendering time is way too slow and it only uses around 15-20% of the CPU and 3 GB of RAM.
My hardware config is :
- CPU : i7-4770k 3.50Ghz
- RAM : 8 GB
- Disk : 2 x 3 TB SATA (no raid)
RAM is not the bottleneck, neither the disk access.
I have tried rendering and exporting the same project on an iMac (with an i5 2.7 Ghz and 4 GB RAM and only 1 disk) and the result is 4x faster !!!
The CPU usage is close to 100% as well as RAM usage.
So how come PP uses all resources availble on an iMac and not on a Windows 7 ?
Is there any known bug or software bottleneck on Windows 7 ?
My machine is brand new and nothing much installed besides Adobe products.
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks,I just rendered out a a 2 minute sequence with about 100 clips in it and Colorista effects on everything to the Vimeo 1080 H264 preset. It took about 5 minutes to render straight from Premiere, it used all the recourses it could, my CPU was running at near %100, same with my ram and GPU, I was happy.
Then I did another render with Red Giant Denoiser and it now wants to take 30 mins and it is only using about %20 of the recourses available. My problem isn't that its taking longer with Denoiser but that its not using all of my computers CPU and GPU.
Im rendering at maximum render quality and bit dept to H264 (Im happy to wait the extra time), if I try to use VRB 2 it encodes 1 pass at a time and wants to take up to 40 minutes.
I would appreciate some advice on this.

ITunes will uses 100% cpu and will not close in OSX Lion
When I start up iTunes, after a few minutes, the fan kicks on and Activity Monitor shows that it is using 100% CPU. The fan kicks up and the MBP gets warm. I have to force close to get it to shut down. iTunes match is constantly running, so maybe that has something to do with it?
I'm not running it in Mini Player mode or anything like that, so I'm not sure what's causing the problem. Any thoughts on how to diagnose it?I also have this problem which has been getting worse with recent successive updates of Firefox. As a long-time user and advocate, I am about ready to look for an alternative browser. Firefox will not close and exit properly, requiring direct cancellation through Task Manager; starts up very slowly (often 1 to 2 minutes); and frequently locks up the CPU with 100% of cycles while doing NOTHING; offers to restart crashed sessions, but cannot recover and reload those sessions; will not operate correctly while any other application accesses the internet, like uTorrent. Firefox is set to delete cookies, etc. whenever the session closes, sqlite database is vacuumed regularly, CCleaner regularly wipes remaining accretions, and disk is defragged. Currently running 3.5.5 but will NOT upgrade until this problem is solved since later builds report the same problems. I know several other users who have experienced the same problem and I can no longer automatically recommend Firefox to users and clients. Is anybody paying any attention to this problem? What is being done to address this fault? Why is there no response to the original poster? Is this really a support forum or just a way to preoccupy and distract the users who suffer this malfunction? Wireless 54Mbps connection. No Adobe Flash, QuickTime, MS Silverlight, etc. installed on this machine. Firefox 3.5.5 with the following add-ons:

Premiere Pro CC only using 30% CPU and none of the GPU
Hi,
I’m very new to video editing (actually I have no Idea what H264, or avi or mp4 or mov is, I just need the video to work) and I have never used Premiere Pro before. Now I'm trying the CC 7.0 trial.
My goal is to achieve the fastest rendering times possible.
Today I have upgraded my PC for maximal performance in video editing:
Intel i7 4930K (12threads)
Radeon 6950 (2GB)
16GB RAM
SSD
I have a recorded video of me playing a PC game in .avi 2552*1348 resolution (2560*1440 monitor without some borders).
I have set export to H.264 and settings to match source (resolution 2552*1348, 30 FPS, Progressive, Square pixels, NTSC, main, 5.0).
But when rendering (no effects, just cutting) the program only uses 22-45% of the entire CPU and none of the GPU.
The best result with this stress was cca 1:1 rendering:movie length. I'm using 16GB RAM, I tried 32GB and 64GB and the stress on CPU and GPU was the same and the rendering times changed only slightly.
I have an SSD and the read write speeds during rendering are 1-9 MB/s so there is plenty of performance left.
Frankly, this 1:1 performance offers Power Director 11 which I have been using so far. (When editing 1080p the ratio in PP is cca 1:2,5, the same as in Power Director.)
So when the disks are idle, the GPU is idle, more RAM changes nothing and the CPU only works on 1/3 its capacity, what is the bottleneck?
I want to use 100% of the CPU and 100% of the GPU and have the rendering:movie say 0,3:1 or so.
What can I change to fully use the processing power of my computer?

Dreamweaver 5.5 uses 50% CPU and becomes unuseable
As the heading says, my installation of Dreamweaver 5.5 has started to use 50% of the CPU time when any file is opened and effectively becomes unusable. I'm running Windows XP with SP3, Core2 CPU and 2GB RAM. The program is also using quite a lot of memory (120,000K+). I'm not having any problems with the other CS5.5 programs I use including Photoshop and Illustrator.
I use DW only occasionally and have run it on this computer for over a year without any problems.
I know that problems similar to this have been widely reported, so I have searched for a tried a wide range of fixes from Adobe and other sources, none of which have worked (for long). These include:
Replicate problem with Dreamweaver templates rather than my own files.
All the steps in http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405604.html including
Deleted cache file, WinFileCache-********.dat
Delete/restore preferences folder.
Disabled "Display External Files" in View menu.
Disabled "Enable Related Files" in Preferences.
Followed http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/hang-opening-document-dreamweaver-cs5.html, adding registry entry ResolveRemoteURLToIPAddress FALSE
Remove and reinstall Dreamweaver.
Remove and reinstall all of CS5.5 and apply updates.
Move and test 'site' on another computer running the same version of DW (under Windows 7).
A few of these, notably disabled "Enable Related Files" worked initially but the problem returned when DW was closed and reopened, even though the item remained disabled.
The problem does not appear running in safe mode, which may be diagnostic of something but is not a fix.
The dream is turning into a nightmare. I'm back to editing html using Notepad++! I'd be grateful for any suggestions.
AndrewThanks to Sudarshan and Preran for your speedy replies and promise of further help. In the meantime, I have tried to track down the cause of the problem.
Having found that DW ran is safe mode, I decided to check out the state of my Windows installation. A registry cleaner found an entry to a non-existant path:
Under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS5.5\FloaterStates\FlashFloaters, FloaterPath3 has the value "C:\Documents and Settings\André\Application Data\Adobe\CS5.5ServiceManager\extensions\ConnectionsHomeOMBackend\2.5.1.20110506_v2_5_1_ 120\ConnectionsHomeOMBackend-2.5.swf"
The directory André should be André, so possibly DW could be having trouble locating a file. Changing the registry entry made no difference as DW seems to reset it.
What is a 'floater' (apart from a floating div)? I did some research and came up with http://forums.adobe.com/message/2312502 which suggested using Window->Workspace Layout->Reset 'Designer' to fix the problem "Unable to find file SME.htm in the Configuration/Floaters directory." The moment I did this, CPU usage dropped to negligible and things worked until I quit and restarted DW. Whether this is related to the registry entry is not clear, but it seems to work.
So I have a work-around and some idea of where the problem may lie but a real solution would be appreciated! Hopefully, one that doesn't involve changing the user name or using Windows 8!
Thanks,

VisiBroker CORBA using 99% CPU and increasing infinite memory usage
I've read most of the CORBA posts on this newsgroup and found that no one else has had this problem, but I tried the other solutions just in case. None of them worked.
In my swing app running in JWS, I have a thread that initializes a VisiBroker ORB. Somewhere along the initialization line, my CPU usage for the JVM controlling my app jumps up to 99%, memory increases infinitely. When i finally killed the app, memory allocated was way over 160 megs. This does not happen with this application outside of JWS. I then used a memory profiler and found that the method call that was causing all of this was in some a class of VisiBroker's, the com.inprise.vbroker.ds.DSUser$DatagramThread in particular its run method.
If i decompile this class gasp, I actually find that there is a possibility of an infinite loop. Here is the code for the method:
public void run()
do
try
do
byte abyte0[] = new byte[8192];
DatagramPacket datagrampacket = new DatagramPacket(abyte0, abyte0.length);
_socket.receive(datagrampacket);
IStream istream = new IStream(datagrampacket);
DSResource dsresource = istream.read_Resource();
InetAddress inetaddress = datagrampacket.getAddress();
int i = datagrampacket.getPort();
synchronized(_handlers)
Enumeration enumeration = _handlers.elements();

}Now using the information i get from the memory profiler, the actual place where the problem is is _socket.receive(datagrampacket); . This method performs the java.net.PlainDatagramSocketImpl.peek method as well, but basically you get the point. Using the memory profiler I also find that this causes a SocketException, which leads to an IOException.
With all this being said, I tried a few things from the newsgroup. I tried making sure my JNLP file specified to use 1.3 because of the classloader issues. This didn't work. I also tried putting code into the thread that does this and perform the setContextClassLoader(getClass().getClassLoader()); so that if it were the classloader issues I've been reading aobut it would take care of that. I have my ORB properties set up in the code and as I said before, this application works perfectly fine outside of JWS. I have ALL needed jar files referenced in my JNLP, it just comes to when it gets to that one line of code. Does anyone out there have any suggestions?No one responded to this post but I came across the solution that I will share in case anyone else needs this in the future. Although I think it's a bug in the VisiBroker code that shouldn't allow this, the problem seemed to be with OSAgent. Upon the recommendation from someone else, I started OSAgent before running JWS and everything worked appropriately. Not familiar enough with VisiBroker to know why this settled the memory leak and infinite loop issue, but it did.

DSC TAG ENGINE doesn't run after using eval copy of LabView
I used an eval copy of LabView.
I uninstalled this eval copy and I bought and installed the full NI Developer Suite.
Now Labview 6i (6.0) works properly but I'm unable to use DSC because the Tag Engine stops immediately with this message: "This evaluation copy of Labview has expired. Engine will close".
I'm using a Pentium III PC 128Mb RAM Win98 italian version.Hi Silvano,
I found a similar case from another customer. Nationl Instruments is aware of this issue. But the only workaround for now would be (propre version):
1) uninstall LabVIEW DSC and LabVIEW
2) delete the registry key from the old LabVIEW eval version with regedit.exe.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\National Instruments\LabVIEW\lvedid]
3) reinstall LabVIEW and LabVIEW DSC
(short version)
1) Rename lvedid in the:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\National Instruments\LabVIEW\lvedid] to e.g. ..\LabVIEW\1lvedid
Hope this helps

Reading from home directory in linux using ~/ or $HOME and BufferedReader
I'm working on an app that reads in a number from a user's home directory using BufferedReader. The file is written by an external script to ~/filename. I don't know if the user of the app's home directory will be /homes/username, /home/username, or something else. I would prefer to read in a similar fashion:
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader( new FileReader("~" + File.separator + ".AppDisableUntilDate") );
Unfortunately, this causes the following error:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: ~/.AppDisableUntilDate (No such file or directory)
less ~/.AppDisableUntilDate does read the file. Using $HOME in place of ~/ also fails. Any ideas what might work?
Thanks,
Joel~ is understood only by the shell. And not by every shell either.
Korn and Bourne-again shell (ksh and bash) understand it, I would conjecture, Bourne shell (good old sh) does not.
