hi sam,
as we know it is Firefox too.
nevertheless, it isn't really a browser problem. to me, the problem is the huge amount of processing that one table now requires.
my best guess is that one table runs several scripts and/or is linked to several marketing machines, far more than a table did last year or ever before. the download client does all of this quite normally, and always has done. the problem is that the number of add-ons has increased to a point where normally good processor is soon overwhelmed.
i am one of the many who is waiting for a resolution. in the meantime, i fear doing anything other than playing just one table. i daren't open a second table. i daren't even open email or facebook whilst playing.
if my guess is anywhere near the cause of the problem, the solution is to stop the marketing and cross-sales information gathering for sky bingo etc.
hope this helps.
..and hello to machka.
I'm guessing your i7 is a desktop so maybe a i7-4700HQ @ 2.40GHz or something similar, if so then that will be triple the speed (at least) as my X3 435. I would still expect that to be performing ok and if mine tops out at 96% then yours maxing out at 25% isn't far off what I would expect. Out of interest you could run Process Explorer and watch the processes. I expect you to see them all chugging along nicely and then once every 15 second or so all the processes stop except one that will be using all the processor utilisation. That's when the lock-ups occur.
