[3ddesktop-dev] Re: 3ddesk CPU Usage Spike?

Michael,

I believe you are correct.  I tried turning the autoacquire feature off, and I 
no longer see the spikes.  

I did have to fiddle with the config file a bit.  I found that if I added 
global options to the end of the file, they didn't seem to work, but if I put 
them before the example view definitions, they worked.

I tried running 3ddeskd directly with the -v flag to see if I could tell if it 
recognized my options.  I got a line like this:

DDDDDDDDDDDDDD demand loading 0

which I believe is telling me in a not entirely obvious way that the 
autoacquire feature is disabled.

Thanks for the info!
