CPU usage spiking

[mmitchell@capstonetechnology.com]

I have a statement as: Thread.CurrentT hread.Sleep(100 0 * 10), which
spikes CPU usage from 17% to 65%. I thought this was supposed to bring
the CPU usage down.

How else would I pause a thread without raising the CPU usage up?

Re: CPU usage spiking

I found it was a do loop causing the spike. I added:
Thread.CurrentT hread.Sleep(100 ) inside the Do Loop and the CPU usage
dropped to 0-2%.

Mhm... Try 'System.Threadi ng.Thread.Sleep (100000)'.
