Another tip, too many searchers and downloads can also increase cpu usage, I now limit downloads to 5 at a time, your machine is much faster than mine so I figure you could do 8 at a time, maybe.
Thank you, I'm willing to bet you are right about too many downloads...I did have more running than usual, there were about 7 or 8 at one time, with another dozen or so on deck. It's funny though, I never noticed it before, and I run quite a few most times. I'll try limiting it to about 5 and disable the UPnP while downloading too see if that does the trick. Thanks RB, I'll post again later to let you know if thats my problem (to f'ing greedy!).
