Hi
I'm trying to understand why I'm seeing some crazy cpu usage every once in a while with voctomix.
I've tried:

  • Disabling the streamblanker (see The StreamBlanker pipeline is always built #126)
  • Removing the audio sources from the videomixer (they are just an audio source with a blank video)
  • Removing the video sources from the audio mixer (video source with blank audio)
  • Disabling the mirror outputs

They seem to impact cpu usage a little when it works normally, but then it goes overboard anyway for a few seconds (reaching 95-100%)

Working OK:
2017-03-14-172555_1315x201_scrot

Dying:
2017-03-14-172920_1357x205_scrot

CPU:
2017-03-14-180721_1039x195_scrot

EDIT:

Some notes:

  • This is running 2 video streams + background, 1 audio stream on a 6 core 3.5ghz machine (1280x720 @ 25fps)
  • Suddenly cpu usage hits 100% for a few seconds, voctomix drops frames but blessedly it keeps the audio in sync.
  • the rescheduling interrupts go up from ~3k to ~7k and the cpu usage goes up accordingly

This is resolved by #128 and #129 (not sure why, but it works)
