Windows 10: Windows 10 Threading Issues

I upgraded from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10. My computer processor is AMD E1-1200@1.4GHz. I've noticed that several programs now stutter instead of play smoothly. It could be because Windows 10 has a new Threading system and the old programs are using outdated threading techniques, or the fact that Windows 10 has poor performance.

Sure, 1.4GHz is slow, but I didn't have this problem in Windows 8.1. I notice the threading problem the most when playing a youtube video. Just showing the youtube GUI causes the video to stutter. When I look at task manager, everything seems to be normal on CPU usage. When I make realtime java applications, I notice stuttering.

Would someone like to explain what Microsoft has changed about Threading please?

Windows 10 upgrade makes my computer shut down randomly

I have the same issue. MY Windows 10 is a new OEM install. BECAUSE, last update fried my hardrive. So new SSD Drives, New OEM professional install and SINCE that install, nothing but random shutdowns. Professional diagnostic from a nationally known computer
center could not find anything. Thought it was a power cord issue. PLEASE UPDATE Windows 10. From the web searches I see Many Many people having this issue. SO, when it came time for my son to go off to college, we decided to buy him a MAC laptop.

Hi David,

it was the date indeed

many thanks for the suggestion

 

Try http://files1.majorgeeks.com/dc513ea...em_monitor.zip to monitor core/thread usage.

Download AMD System Monitor - MajorGeeks right?

 

Try here:
Download AMD System Monitor 1.0.9

 

I've opened it. What should I monitor?

 

Turn details on and monitor core usage with various programs. Should be as even as possible. Threads are tied to cores.

 

I opened eclipse. After it finished opening, I monitored the CPU usage. Unfortunately the AMD System Monitor only updates every second. What I noticed is that core usage is slightly biased toward the first core, and it tends to stray from even usage quite often. The usage I would have to say is--relative to the first core at 50%-- 50% +- 36%. After eclipse settled down, core 1 became extremely biased, and core two was consistently 50-80% of less than core 1 (e.g core[0]=50%, core[1]=10%).

Does it help to say that just keeping my laptop on my bed with the vent on the right side being somewhat covered by a book the thickness of my laptop to use a mouse is causing my CPU and fan speed to go up to 67-75% heat and speed, respectively (which I noticed causes much throttling within my CPU, reduce of about 200-300 MHz when I want a consistent 1.4GHz)?

 

The only time I ever see Core usage consistently "even" is when 100% of the CPU is used

I observed playing a song and idle spotify; same effect as eclipse.

 

Any suggestions CountMike?

 

It's normal for first cor to have more activity, System uses it most. As far as I can see only when load goes over about 30% that other cores show more usage, that's how it's here.
Please keep laptop as cool as possible, at the bottom too, most likely air intake is there. The Lap part in Laptop means same as in lap dog, it can fit but doesn't mean it should be there long. They can overheat in a hurry and throttle down to avoid damage.

 

Perhaps I should see if anything changed in Cumulative Update for Windows 10 for x64-based Systems (KB3081424)

 

News looks better, my front page shows that Miss Piggy and Kermit the frog just split up.

 

So then, threading is normal and the problem is something else?
