CPU usage to high?

Post by numbawang »

hii everyone, can anyone explain to me if its normal to use 40-60+ cpu on this game? I am using ender mod as well as a graphics mod. Anyone else have the same problem or even a fix?

Java is an interpreted language. The upside is that you should be able to play the game on any platform that fully supports Java. The downside is that it requires about 7-10x the processing power of a natively coded and compiled program. Add in the need for OpenGL support, and it makes Java even more cumbersome on your system. Just be glad Java handles threading very efficiently, else you'd see one of your cores maxed out.
