activesync 4.5beta eats 50% processor time

[dutchrhino]

Hi,

Has anyone else noticed that the new activesync (wether it is connected or not) eats up 50% processor time???

Weirder still... it will only connect and sync to it one time... after that it won't recognize the machine anymore and you have to reboot.

I don't have this problem.

Active Sync is installed in the computer. I don't think it will affect the ROM on your device, or were you reffering to your computer?. It is just a medium of communication to your computer.

I dont think he meant ROM! After all such communication tool would only function (utilizes CPU) when required, otherwise remains idle! Check your taskmgr…

when syncing mine uses 2%

Hi, yes I meant 50% of processor time of my XP machine. ;)

This is when it is connected and when it is not connected (as seen with taskmanager). obviously something is very wrong. Let's hope the final will be better

Hi,

There's a beta 2 now!

Maybe this is better.

Cheers, Leo :)

btw. I don't Sync My Documents folder, or Email, the only things I Sync are Favoriets, Calendar, Contacts, Tasks and Notes.

Saves important Memory!

Got the same problem with the final version. First connection is ok after disconnecting activesync keeps running (90-99% processor time). Have to reboot the computer to stop it. After reboot it works ok till I connect my exec again and get the same problem.

Used final and beta versions all with the same problem, so no more wm6 for me at the moment. Installed 4.2 again with no problems.

Suggestions anyone

I have the same problems as dutchrhino, but it eats nearly 100% CPU usage!!! it's the rapimgr.exe :(

after that my pc crashes. i reinstalled it twice, but with result of having the same problems...

trying now beta 2 if it is better....

Facing odd problem with Active sync. Works perfectly with my home PC, but very inconsistant with my office PC. Gets disconnected very often and does not allow bluetooth sync even when connected. I have AS 4.5 both at home and office.
