i have noticed today that while in FL studio(fruity loops) my cpu usage instantly supassed 85 percent no programs where open but FL studio and firefox. I have sense then restarted my laptop. Only google chrome is running and my cpu usage is at 56 percent which is the max I have seen it so far while only chrome is running. This causes the letters I type to be typed seconds after I press the keys, web pages freeze during load, and my pc is just slow when this happens. What are some common things to reduce cpu overload.
