Compiled script and high CPU %


  • Subject: Compiled script and high CPU %

Hi all, I've got a compiled script I wrote with AppleScript Studio to control QuickTime Broadcaster. I've noticed that when the script is running in the foreground, idle (Broadcaster is not running. The app is just in the foreground doing nothing.) there's a constant 23% of the CPU being used. If I switch to another app the script CPU % drops to zero.

When Broadcaster is running my script takes roughly 40% CPU whether it's in the foreground or background. I have to record a couple hours of video at a time and the high CPU % my script is taking maxes the CPU to 100%. I hate to run at 100% CPU for a couple hours at a time and it has an effect on the frame rate of the recorded video.

Does anyone have any ideas on what the problem could be and how to fix it. I can post some code if necessary. Thanks a bunch.
