Hi Guys
It is for long time I am suffering by cpu usage and I couldn't find any solution for it. I do have a pc with i7 processor and 14 GB ram. Any time I do have a big and heavy project, all the 8 cpu's indicators in sonar go up and down but the first one always hit the end and stops the project. The other are  usually go up and down about less than half, just the first cpu indicator hits the end. Is there any way to divide the pressure evenly on all the cores? 
By the way I am using sonar V_STUDIO 700 R and Console and just using Waves plugins. 
Thanks

In Preferences, do you have the box checked that is for Multiprocessing Engine?
 
Also, go to Windows System Information and make sure multiple cores are utilized - it will show there.
 
Please detail the plugins used in one of these projects that is causing you grief, AND please detail exactly how you have come to believe it is a CPU usage failure.
 
Thanks,

Hi 
Thanks Bob for replay 
Yes, Multiprocessing is checked and i tried by uncheck same issue.
I am using lots of C1, some IR1, One knob And Hdelay, but most of them are Frozen to make the CPU more relax to work.
Project stops as soon as the first core indicator hits the end thats why i am thinking it should be the cpu usage failure. maybe i am wrong.
Thanks  again for respond :)

Question - what happens if you hit 'E' to bypass all effects?
 
Does the issue go away?
 
('E' on your computer keyboard toggles off/on effects bypassing).
 
I am wondering if one or more of your plugins is behaving badly.

If you go into preferences and get into the initialization files there's a setting for multi-core thread count. I have had some success by changing the value in that setting.

I bypassed the effects. Ok now it wouldn't hit the end and project wouldn't stop anymore but still the first core indicator shows more usage compare to the left 7 cores which are going up and down 1/3 of the first one.Any idea?
