when it happens, try to disable your firewall and see if the problem disappears

Your problem is peerguardian.  That's a real cpu hog.  If you like that type of program protowall is much better.  Anyway, for now, run HFS without peerguardian running in the background and let us know if the problem goes away.

same problem here, 90, 100% within or without firewall (windows firewall) after 20, 30 mins of inactivity, or when somebody connect to my hfs  :'(

1. how can you know it is HFS and not another software?
are you watching with task manager or similar?

2. are you still able to use HFS when CPU is 100%, or is it hanged up?

hi rejetto, im john from the previous post.. err.. in the beta 15 after 60 mins of testing i dont have problems with nothing.. if you want, i can test the beta16 too.

just a supposition, but.. i think the problem started when i saved "options to registry" in beta18.. im not sure about this

yes, test beta 16.
if it depends on the version, i can look for changes.

no problems with 2.1 beta 16  ;D
Title: Re: CPU useage 90 to 100%
Post by: rejetto on September 30, 2006, 09:16:19 PM
can you re-test and confirm that beta17 gives you the problem?

good news Rejetto :)
i found the problem, and its just a internal conflict with a program installed in my computer.. the program name's Netlimiter.
i can't run both of them..

thanks and sorry ::)

so... does or does not depend on HFS version?
Title: Re: CPU useage 90 to 100%
Post by: proenca on October 04, 2006, 07:13:35 AM
yes, only in betas 17 and 18.. 16,15,14, etc.. no problem with netlimiter
also i found another little problem with nview (nvidia video cards software) its made the same issues, cpu useage 100% and server down..

(sorry for my really bad english)

sadly i can't investigate further, because for 2.1 betas i didn't keep sources for every release.
my fault.
anyway, also if HFS process uses the CPU, doesn't mean it is hfs.exe itself.
other software, like netlimiter, run inside other processes, with dll.
this is also a base method for fooling firewalls ;)
since it happens also with another software, i would tell it is netlimiter itself.
netlimiter is a very nice software. i would use it if it was free.
but sadly, working at a such low level can easily generate incompatibility.

wait u saying its my nView well since i do always have t enabled how do i disable it i never tired?

that sums things up i run hfs with PG2 off since it blocks many ranges it had to be nview
