That one? Is just _mm_pause .. O_O"
Yes, that is the one. The fix is to replace it with something better than _mm_pause. What to replace it with? dunno.
How about __yield

Really? I read it was for AMD64 processors.

Okay, so who's fluent in coding here besides the developers? If we can get some knowledgeable coders to offer some suggestions, we can alter the code and test the changes ourselves and report back if it improves anything. We might be able to take a crack at this and either fix the problem or at least improve performance somewhat.
I'm going to look around, try to find anything better than _mm_pause if there is anything.
Skid, is that code I mentioned commented out and if so, why is it commented out? I've tried to uncomment the code but it just produces a ton of errors during compilation.

Quote:#ifdef _WIN32
YieldProcessor();
#elif defined(_M_IX86) || defined(_M_X64)
_mm_pause();
#endif
}
That code, it has a "#" before every other line. I don't know how to code so this might server another purpose besides commenting out the code.

The # are used when you are working with definitions ( I don't know how to explain it but they are not comments ), they must be there
What is the difference between Vtune and Very Sleepy ? ( I just found that profiler , and I want to know If I can work with it )

Thanks for explaining.
I did some reading and I'm wondering if the following would work any better:
I of course get identifier not found errors and I am not sure what to do to correct it so I can't test. The code above may also need some alterations if it isn't correct.

From where did you got those functions ???
