--- Comment #9 from Eric 8jmtfa1e@gmail.com 2010-11-08 06:27:31 CST --- It's not just the CPU that's idle. The GPU is also in an idle state. Using aticonfig I noticed that my graphics card is just using 25% of it's performance while the frame rate usually is below 20 FPS. The card is continuously running in its lowest power state. This bug is not really effected by the CPU frequency because if it was, frame rates would sky rocket when performance settings was used. No, there's obviously a bug hidden somewhere in the wine source code forcing our precious application to stall/sleep. Though finding it could be somewhat tricky.
Maybe it would be possible to find the bug through profiling..
