[Bug 46225] New: Act Cadenza Strife (A Fighter Maker 2knd game): Uses 60%+ of the CPU
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46225 Bug ID: 46225 Summary: Act Cadenza Strife (A Fighter Maker 2knd game): Uses 60%+ of the CPU Product: Wine Version: 3.21 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: gdi32 Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: Zero3K(a)teknik.io Distribution: --- Created attachment 62912 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=62912 Stack Trace of ACS.exe I've noticed the issue occurring in ReactOS (which uses the code that WINE has for the drawing of graphics when it comes to DirectDraw). I am using the latest stable version of VirtualBox with 32 MB of Video Memory set and running WINE via Slax 9.5.0. An image of the terminal output, stack trace made using a MSVC build of ReactOS with the PDBs made when compiling it, and an image of the reported CPU usage when its running are all attached.

Stack is from ReactOS, right? Why is this reported as wine bug?
1. Because ReactOS uses code from WINE for DirectDraw, etc. 2. Because the issue also happens in WINE. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

That's not how copyright works. In any case, you should report this to ReactOS, since that's what you're using and not Wine. Just because they use code from Wine doesn't make it Wine's bug.

Why has no one confirmed it yet?
Probably because nobody else has tried to reproduced the bug. I have now, and I see the game is calling PeekMessage() in a tight loop. Are you sure it doesn't have high CPU usage in Windows? What specific numbers are you seeing? (In reply to Bryan Kirk from comment #27)
It also seems to be causing the high CPU usage in other games (such as Melty Blood: Actress Again - Current Code and Iconoclasts).

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46225 --- Comment #29 from Bryan Kirk <Zero3K(a)teknik.io> --- 1.

That doesn't really mean much. GDI isn't the reason that this program is taking that much CPU time.

It would be nice if more people were to take a look at it. That way the cause can be found.
So I had a look. The game constantly uses most of a CPU core to draw graphics via GDI functions. In fact that's true both on Wine AND on Windows, it's just that CPU usage is reported differently. On Linux a 100% CPU usage e.g. in "top" means that the total CPU utilization is one core. On Windows' task manager a 100% CPU utilization means that ALL cores of the CPU are in use. With this game on Windows I get about 12% CPU usage, which is essentially 100/8 (8 is the number of CPU threads I have). -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Its CPU usage was high when I last tested it. So, it probably is slower even though its using all cores. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

You would need to ask the developer of the program. On windows it's using a full CPU core, and so it is on Wine. The CPU usage is exactly the same, no bug here.
