Thanks for the clarification there Holger.
I wonder why the lag is occuring at that time then L Perhaps a reboot and
defrag is in order. Thanks!

The "idle process" is the
percentage of the CPU which is not used...
If your idle process is 100%, then your
CPU does not do anything.

functions hidden in the "idle process")

Subject: OT: System Idle Process
uses 99% cpu
I’m experiencing some lag in XSI when modeling due to
what seems to be the System Idle Process soaking up cpu cycles. Running 64bit
xsi on 64bit xp, with dual, dual core amd processors. My system idle process
will skyrocket up to 89-99% and that is when the lag occurs in the viewport in
XSI. I’m not sure if the two are related whatsoever, hence the reason
I’m asking here. I searched microsoft.com for the system idle process but
turning up nothing thus far. Anyone able to toss me a clue? Thanks
