optimise and reduce memory usage

[zFrank]

in my script i need to close and show many windows.

i used

$filter = "Test|First|Second|etc" ;and many others too
$i = 50
While Sleep(1000); check every second
    If WinExists("[REGEXPTITLE:(?i)" & $filter & "]") Then
        WinClose("[last]")
        $i -= 1
        If $i = 0 Then ExitLoop
        MsgBox(0, "example", "Test"
    EndIf
WEnd

i need to use around 30 more words but it is taking 95% cpu usage and ram usage.

i have to run the window check until i finds the window of my choice.

i also added sleep but adding sleep slows the process and also script uses 85-95%

please give me a suggestion on how can i reduce the cpu usage.

thanks.

my script may look wrong because i have not written it in text editor.

I tested this script it uses 1%cpu

$filter = "Test|First|Second|etc" ;and many others too
$i = 50
While 1
    Sleep(1); check every second
    If WinExists("[REGEXPTITLE:(?i)" & $filter & "]") Then
        WinClose("[last]")
        $i -= 1
        If $i = 0 Then ExitLoop
        MsgBox(0, "example", "Test")
    EndIf
WEnd

but as i told before i also have around 30 more words. this was just a example script.

2nd : Maybe you have tested it on a very high end pc.

please give any solution for it.

[zFrank]

this script will run in a office on 100 computers.

their config is... as follow

Win98 , 500mhz processor and 128mb ram.

because in this office there is no need of high quality pcs. but this is a problem/challenge for me. i hope any good and/or expert will help me.

it doesn't matter how mutch words you add in to it try it first on the slowest pc and then you can see ferther:) i think every pc can handle this:)

[realkiller]

if you get hich cpu usage you must set a sleep(1) to that point, play with it if you post your hole script i can look into it muttley

[Emiel Wieldraaijer]

i think you problem is the sleep (1)

sleep is in milliseconds not in seconds

increase the value to 1000 and try again

[realkiller]

the 1 milsecond sleep is just fine if you increase it hicher it wil not improve cpu

[zFrank]

okkk, my problem is not solved it still uses 90% after giving Sleep(1000) and i can't give it more Sleep() please give any other solution.

$A = 1
While $A < 3
    $B = 1
    While $B < 580
               if winexists("Test") Then
               WinClose("Test")
               ElseIf winexists("Example") Then
                     WinClose("Example")
               EndIf
               if winexists("Test33") Then
               ExitLoop
           EndIf 
           Sleep(25)
       Wend
       Sleep(25)
Wend

Sleep your script 25 miliseconds in every loop, and memory usage will be reduced.

For me is between 6% and 9% CPU Usage.
