TC only using 25% of CPU
Hi there, Is it possible to put TC using 100% of my CPU? I have a rather "slow poke" CPU and after a while working with TC, it gets really slow. Don't know if it is the number of ...
- TC never used more than one core AFAIK. The script engine is single-threaded anyways, the UI work has to be done on the UI thread, and the whole thing is old, so there is likely nothing in there to take advantage of core parallelism. If you want to use 100% of your CPU, you need a CPU with only 1 core. Alternatively you could install an hypervisor and run 4 concurrent VMs...
The reason why everything gets slow is TC's horrible memory management. Add badly structured project and namemapping files, badly implemented auto-complete, and probably a memory leak or two. Personally I kill the TestComplete or TestExecute process completely between each test.
