Since ya'll are asking for someone to help. Maybe you can help me with a
problem I am having with a source code I am modifing.
It has timeslices built into it, but the CPU usage is still in the upper
limits (89-98%). I sorta remember something I have read and wantted to verify
it. That the timeslices shouldn't be gave at anytime. Like say you do this.
For A := 0 to 100 do
begin
{Do some stuff here}
TimeSlice;
end;
It would do 100 timeslices back to back.
I have read that you should time them to be at least 55 ms apart
( depending on the system ). That if you do like I did above it will accually
make the application use more of the CPU.
Maybe someone could explain to me all about Time Slices. Or point me in the
direction of a place I can read up on them.
