Lets go through this article as I have discussed the concise methods to do so.
Right-opt for process you want to set the limit & selectSet affinity.
Now uncheck the CPU core boxes that you dont want the process to use.
Unfortunately for Linux folks, its not that simple.
But before we begin, identify which process is eating up all the CPU resources.
Itll sort the processes according to their CPU usage.
After identifying the CPU hogging process, follow these methods to limit its resource usage.
There are two methods to do so, both of which involve using the Task Manager.
Also, there are other methods, and Ive provided them below.
Youll need to re-configure the affinity and priority again by following the same steps.
But its a bit complicated and not everyone will be comfortable with installing a third-party app on their PC.
So just stick with the vanilla methods.
you’re gonna wanna use thecpulimitutility to limit the processor utilization of a specific program.
As a workaround, I ran the cpulimit in the background by using the background or -b flag.
Frequently Asked Questions
How to limit CPU usage in Android?
Unfortunately, there is no way to limit CPU usage manually in Android smartphones.
Is 100% CPU usage harmful?
100% CPU usage for a prolonged period can potentially overheat your system if you dont have proper cooling.
Additionally, high processor utilization, even when youre not doing anything CPU-intensive, calls for caution.
Should I limit CPU Usage for video games?
Video games, especially demanding AAA titles, require all the available hardware resources to run properly.
So you shouldnt limit the CPU usage for any games as it might cause reduced framerate and laggy gameplay.
Have a nice day!
