I've just installed Limewire, I saw the link to the forum so though I'd take a look.

After reading this thread I opened the task manager and checked out the CPU performance. It's averaging at around 4%, and occasionally peaking at 14%. Interesting.

I'm running:

1.3Ghz Athlon
768 meg
Windows XP Pro

Has there ever been any mention of difference in performance for AMD compared to Intel processors? I don't believe that a PIII 500 should struggle as much mentioned earlier.

Also, any performance difference between JRE 1.3.1 and 1.4?

First impressions on LimeWire - great for downloading music.

Cheers
