I'm running NX 10.0 64 bit and for some reason it will only use 13% of the CPU. Is there any setting to allow it to use more of the CPU?

How many cores does your system have? If it's more than one, are you looking at the usage per-core or is this reported as a percentage of the entire machine cycles available?

Hi John,
I have 8 cores on my system. Yes I am CPU history is set for one graph per CPU.

Are you coming to IL/WI RUG on October 20?
 
No, I retired in January. I only follow the message boards as a hobby ;-)

You are actually using 100% of 1 core which is all NX is programmed to use, except in certain areas where it can do multithreaded tasks (NC processing, rendering, CAE, etc).
1 core at 100% of an 8 core machine is the 13% you are seeing.
