  • Dual Opteron 244/Vegas render CPU usage under 20%!!

    Posted by Yannis73 on July 20, 2006 at 2:46 pm

    Hello to all of you,when rendering using Vegas 6 task manager shows CPU(s) usage around 20% and page file memory usage is going up to 1,29Gb.Same thing happens during preview,very low frame rate and generally poor performance.
    What could be wrong?
    My system is not that bad:Tyan S2895-Dual Opteron 244-1GB RAM-2x200GB SATAII-GeForce 6600 128Mb
    Any suggestion where to look at will be great help…

    Thanks in advance.

    Rendering to what? Most of the job of rendering is done by third-party tools in Vegas (Main Concept etc), and it really depends what you are rendering to. I have an AMD 64 X2, and when I render to MPEG-2 I get 100% on both my CPUs.

    Thanks for the response,well rendering MainConcept mpeg2,QuickTime,rendering performance in general is too slow…and since preview also is bad i suspect something is wrong with my system settings although all drivers are up to date,something i have to look out by myself.
    What i don’t know if it is normal or not is the fact that page file usage is so high while rendering(Physical is 1024Mb,XP page file setting is 3000mb,usage during rendering over 1,65Gb).

    Thanks again.
