(im starting to clog the forums arent i?)

anyway, i just discovered something about windows 11. it forces EVERYTHING to run on a single CPU thread, causing immense performance issues. basically, windows 11 is only letting your PC use 1/16th to 1/4th of its power depending on your hardware. use a program such as process hacker to have things run on more threads. here are some screenshots of before and after pics on maximum settings.

before (windows 11 defaults to 1 thread)

after (using process hacker to force SP to run on all threads)

moral of the story: dont upgrade to windows 11 yet, wait for microsoft to work out the kinks.

(also im aware that i need to allocate more ram thanks for telling me)
