Hmmm,

I'll have to have another dig at it when I get a few minutes.

I have never needed to do the reg edits to disable core parking , and the High Performance Power profile also has some extra settings that need to be disabled from the default. I am wondering if its also linked to C Halt states , EIST as I always disable those setting by default.

SONAR at 032 samples has always fallen on its arse compared to the other native DAW's , so I'll be interested if in fact this reg tweak helps matters. It would in theory also help the other DAW's as well.

I did witness a bizarre sawtooth ramping of CPU loads in TM under extreme sessions at 96K in Cubendo , which was not effecting the performance, more a visual/monitoring anomaly I first believed , but maybe this has something to do with it.

I'll drop back after I have done a few more tests..
