 |
|
Hello,
this simple script | Code: | #NoEnv
Loop,
{
Process, Wait, AutoHotkey.exe
Process, WaitClose, AutoHotkey.exe
}
ExitApp |
produces a CPU load about 30 % on my office system.
Has anyone any idea why? Maybe a bug?

You haven't put any sleeps in your loop so it runs at extremely high frequency. This is not a bug, just bad practice. |

For Wait and WaitClose: Processes are checked every 100 milliseconds; the moment the condition is satisfied, the command stops waiting. In other words, rather than waiting for the timeout to expire, it immediately sets ErrorLevel as described above, then continues execution of the script. Also, while the command is in a waiting state, new threads can be launched via hotkey, custom menu item, or timer. |

| It works for me at 0% load (tested with notepad.exe). Have you tried using Process, Priority, , L and SetBatchLines in your script? |
