autoitxp Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Hi i want to to know y between While1 to Wend take 100% cpu usage sleep time will reduce cpu usage but any one know any better solution for continue loop
BigDod Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Hii want to to know y between While1 to Wend take 100% cpu usage sleep time will reduce cpu usage but any one know any better solution for continue loop If your loop is waiting for you to press a button or select something you could use GUIGetMsg Time you enjoyed wasting is not wasted time ......T.S.

flaxcrack Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 Hii want to to know y between While1 to Wend take 100% cpu usage sleep time will reduce cpu usage but any one know any better solution for continue loop put a Sleep(100) in your While 1 Loop. That should not spike the CPU usage. [quote] Gilbertson's Law: Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.Sandro Alvares: Flaxcrack is please not noob! i can report you is stop stupid.

flaxcrack Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 or sleep(1)it's enough.Yep! Depending on your hadware, this is a rather true statement.

Helge Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 AutoIt is trying it's best to do tasks the fastest it can, and that also counts for loops. Also, if there's no point in the loop where the script gets any time to "rest", the CPU-usage will go to 100%, which is understandable... As the other people said, you will avoid this problem if you add a tiny Sleep to your script. I personally use Sleep(1), and in some script I even use the GUIGetMsg()..also for non-GUI scripts.

autoitxp Posted February 3, 2006 Author Posted February 3, 2006 (edited) Hi Thanks okay helge how to use GUIGETMSG() for non-GUI script for example in this case here sleep(100) works but i really want to avoid sleep() so tell how GUIGETMSG() works here in non-GUI script While 1 If ProcessExists('NOTEPAD.EXE') Then ProcessClose('NOTEPAD.EXE') WEnd I did a time test on Sleep(1) to Sleep(9) and they were all the same as Sleep(10) yup i agree i also test 1 to 9 same as 10 no differnce i feel Edited February 3, 2006 by autoitxp
pecloe Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 1000 = 1 second, what can sleep(10) possibly hurt? you'll never know the difference. phil

Helge Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 ...Thanks okay helge how to use GUIGETMSG() for non-GUI scriptfor example in this case here sleep(100) works but i really want to avoid sleep() so tell how GUIGETMSG() works here in non-GUI script... Hmm...just put it in your script, where you would normally put the Sleep() Note that I rarely use this method; it's basically only when speed really matter,and when I also want to avoid using to much CPU-power, thanks to the auto-idle.
pecloe Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 i guess you don't need a gui to use guigetmsg() learn something everyday! phil
