Sudden Performance drop.
I’ve had a recent and sudden drop in performance of about 40%. About a week ago I could get 25-28fps playback with a couple nodes on 1080p, and now it’s down to about 17-20 on the same projects.
Nothing I do using realtime proxies, lowering the red debayering, opening a pro Res project seem to be helping even get it up to speed. My GTX285 is detected, and everything seems ok.
Any Troubleshooting ideas?
I’m running system 10.6.7 a GT120 & GTX 285.

NEVERMIND.
Apparently having a chrome window in the background with a flash video window open in the BG will take that 40% performance drop.
Weird.

I have found a number of things that you would think don’t take much horsepower in the BG will derail Resolve. The only reason why that I can think of is that a lot of little tiny CPU disruptions interrupt Resolve at just the wrong time will derail things.
An HP printer driver I found was doing that on my machine. Dropbox running in the BG wasn’t helping either.

Some big flash stuff can really bring down your machines.
I remember many years ago when i did some web stuff on flash there i saw it.
If the computer was not top of the line gun then complex animations could really bog it down
almost to 0 % of performance. There is really good point why Steve was angry at Adobe when they
banned flash on ipad. There is really good reason i think. Think if you leave some web page open with
many many flash parts inside. So seemingly harmless web will kill your performance for sure up
to some point.—
