CPU usage question

Hi all

Minor issue here with CPU usage I have noticed. I have 3 Zorin installs, and two of them with Intel CPUs seem to balance the workload out evenly between all threads. However, on my Ryzen 5 5600G (using integrated gfx) there are two threads (#1 and #7) which seem to get hammered and all other threads have very low figures. Is that normal?

This seems to come and go, with #7 being the thread used heavily the most.

Just a minor thing I guess, but curious nonetheless.

Is it permanently so high? When it is only from time to Time, it can be some individual Consumption from Background Processes.

The Picture what You show: Are there running any other Programs? When You have that, check the ''Processes Tab if there are any heavy-load Processes.

Brave is running, YT videos etc, and that's the highest consumer in the list.

I have just put a discrete GFX card in, and it appears to have made no difference.

Back on my i3-12100 (with discrete GFX), doing the same things, and all is nicely even!!

Maybe try it with disabled Hardware Acceleration in Brave.
