100% cpu use in audio visualisation
#1
Hi,

I am running Fedora 18 on an intel-graphics based system. I have compiled
xbmc from source (master of 9/6/2013; commit 257b12a4564fb4e)

The version runs mostly fine, including video placyback. However when playing
mp3's all the visualisation add-ons (openGL, projectM, ...) run quite slowly and use 100% cpu
time.

This was not the case in an earlier version I compiled and used under Fedora 17. It is
also not the case with the frodo version from rpm fusion. Both of these use around 20%
cpu time at most.

I compiled as follows:
make clean && ./configure --enable-goom --disable-afpclient --disable-samba --enable-pulse --enable-nfs --disable-ssh && make

I also tried with
make clean && ./configure --enable-goom --disable-afpclient --disable-samba --enable-external-libraries --enable-pulse --enable-nfs --disable-ssh && make
but got compilation errors related to vdpau

What could be the reason for this high cpu usage? What could I try to avoid it?
