Has anyone with the CPU spiking issue worked with CW support?   I've seen some users reporting the same thing so there must be something to it, but as one of the many who is actually getting good performance there's little I can do to help.   And I feel for ya, since that performance boost is something everyone should have!
 
FWIW, I'm running on Win7 x64 SP1, Q9300 w/ 8GB RAM, Focusrite 18i6 w/ ASIO (2-15ms input latency depending on the project and state).
