any way to better distribute the workload between the cores
So I have a 12 core cheese grater. When I run Pro tools I see that the load on the CPU is distributed to the middle CPU's and many of them seem to be hardly doing anything? Can this be fixed? Trying to milk out as much as I can out of this old but powerful machine.

Re: any way to better distribute the workload between the cores
Is it actually causing you issues with AAE errors? If not ignore it. Watching the meters usually is not that useful.
Lots of other leading info like your sample rate, buffer size you are using would be useful to know. If you are having AAE CPU errors then you can try - Run at a larger IO buffer size Run at a lower sample rate Avoid deep chaining signal paths/lots of bus chaining/stacking of plugins. Long chains/deep bussing pushes more stuff onto fewer cores. Avoid use of multi-channel/stereo plugins when multi-mono plugins would work. Recently discussed on DUC. This causes say both stereo track parts to be processed on the same core. Make more use of freeze and commit Try disabling hyper threading —- and as always... Make sure your system is fully optimized. Do standard troubleshooting looking for poorly behaved plugins, and plugin denormalization effects. Especially make sure disk cache is enabled==Set to a size not “normal”. I would also disable dynamic plugin processing, and leave it disabled it causes more real hassles than it is worth. OS X 10.8.x.... are you really running 2018 on that? |

Try to turn off hyperthrrading
Use multimono plugins for stereo inserts. |

Turn off hyperthreading first, it has helped a lot of people
