Super high CPU usage on Chromium

[pe] · started 2019-05-13 15:25 · updated 2019-05-13 15:31

Hello, when I open a mid-sized project the cpu load meter displays 'overload' even if i'm not playing or even moving the mouse.
top shows that Chromium is using 280% of cpu. I'm currently on Kubuntu 19 with Intel i5 5200U.
If someone would be willing to help me that would be awesome!

yes the audiotool booster improved the situation a lot. top now shows 108% cpu usage but the app is usable! thank you!!!

You can try different buffer sizes (under the booster menu) if you still experience glitches.
