Bug ID: 40471
           Summary: wine staging makes laptop run REALLY hot
           Product: Wine-staging
           Version: 1.9.7
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux

I am trying to play Age of Empires 2 on voobly and I couldn't get it to work
with regular wine. I followed the instructions below to make it work...

https://www.reddit.com/r/aoe2/comments/2zyogr/how_to_playing_aoe_ii_on_voobl...

But when I play the game, even just the game not on voobly, my laptop becomes
really hot (~80C), meanwhile if I play it on plain old wine it stays really
cool which it should (I have 2015 MacBookAir) playing a game form the 90's, but
it will not work on voobly.

I would like to get to the bottom of the heat issue if possible, but I have no
way to follow up with what is making it overheat and what I can do about it.

Any ideas?

Adding for clairifcation...

The wine version installed via brew was 1.8.1

If I do a regular build of 1.8.1 (non-homebrew) then AOE runs really hot, any
build of wine I have tried thus far, will run hot when playing AOE, everything
except the brew installation.

All that needs to be done to recreate this is to install the latest version of
wine and try running the game, after about 3 minutes of gameplay, my processor
temp goes up to ~80C as opposed to ~40C on the homebrew install of wine.

Perhaps a diff between plain and homebrew versions may help. In addition
there might be some difference in the build flags or build environments.

added the above attachment which I think is the build flags (?)...

anyway I ca see it is pulling plain wine 1.8.1 from winehq so it must be
something with the build, could it be an X11 issue?
