[Bug 20911] New: Warcraft III (Frozen Throne) performance issue (cpu at 100% all time)

Summary: Warcraft III (Frozen Throne) performance issue (cpu at
                    100% all time)
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.31
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

When starting Warcraft III - Frozen Throne using this command:
env WINEPREFIX="/mnt/musik/.wine" WINEDEBUG=-all wine explorer
/desktop=0,1680x1050 /mnt/disk/Programme/Warcraft\ III/Frozen\ Throne.exe
-opengl

but also without the parameters, or starting Warcraft III Reign Of Chaos using
wine /mnt/disk/Programme/Warcraft\ III/Warcraft\ III.exe

leads to one of my two CPU's being constantly at 100%, whilst the other isn't
used by wine at all.

I run a multithread test program, which showed me that multithreading in wine
works. Also I always use current nVidia graphics drivers. I had this problem a
long time already, but since the game is playable most of the time I didn't
care to report this.

I'm running Gentoo 32bit on a Nexoc E619 with a nVidia GF 8600M GT and a Intel
DualCore T7300, 2GHz.

The annoying thing about the problem is, that if you get some background
application spiking to 100% on the other CPU, the game will lag immensly.

I would say, that this is a normal behavior to run at 100%. And stick to only
one CPU is also normal, when the application is not written for multi cpu
usage.

So you want to say this game isn't using one whole CPU on Windows?

Did you install the game under Wine? Or you are running a Windows installation?

Install the game under Wine, and feel free to reopen if the problem persists.
