CPU usage

Hello:
I have P4 3 GHZ 1.5 GB RAM.
But still Pro/e WF 2.0 (Pro/Intralink) runs very slow is there anyway I
can increase (prioritize) CPU usage for this process because when I
check CPU usage it says 1 or 2 %.

Thanks a lot.

Regards,

What makes you think the CPU has anything to do with why it's running slow!?!
Couldn't the CPU usage numbers spike when the processor gets fed a lot of data
then drop when it's done with the heavy lifting? Couldn't the problem be that the
processor is not getting fed at a constant rate so that it isn't always busy. This
can happen when Pro/e, a heavily networked program, isn't getting stuff fed to it
through the an IP address (could be a bad router, failing server, busy network)
Anyway, if Pro/e is the only application running, it'll always have top priority.
And, if two or three other apps are competing for resources, the processor should
be chugging away at close to 100%, not necessarily on Pro/e. In that case, Pro/e
could be slow, but the processor should be very busy.

 

It's probably something else slowing down the computer - like network
delays or disk access. What is your available physical memory
according to task manager? Is it also slow when you perform the same
operations outside of Intralink?
