What is system idle process




















That is, the idle process is too busy to notice keystrokes and mouse clicks. I once read something about WinXp automatically moving files about, a kind of optimisation. The point seems to be that users expectations are that the SIP should not take over the machine, but it does, interferring with the usefulness of the computer.

There have been many times for me when a program has appeared to have crashed when in fact the computer is just busy doing the SIP. If the SIP is housekeeping processes and commands to keep the processor occupied during periods when programs are inactive then as soon as a program requires the CPU, the SIP should be suspended.

So either the SIP has been badly programmed or it is more than the computer sorting itself out. Either way this is very frustrating to users and a way to control the SIP would be really welcome. On my computer i found the same thing, but while transferring a massive gb folder from partition to partition. Needless to say it is deadly slow, should,nt the processor consider that an opportunity to maximize the cpu to decrease time?

Leo, I understand what you are saying about SIP not interfering by definition, or by design is probably better. But what Hawkins, Webb, and Milton are saying is true. Whatever the intent, SIP does in fact interfere. What is needed, as Milton says, is user control of this feature. Is it that once it starts, it must finish the SIP first? Is this process only characteristic of Windows?

One guy said it was days b-4 he could even get on line. I did a search because I was under the same idea, that the system idle process was killing my ability to work. I have a feeling that based on the new info here from Leo and the complaints that I was right in my first idea.

The slowdows are the result of either system restore files being written, the hard drive trying to clean up swap files and rewriting or closing files, or both depending on when they take place. I think the system backup is growing too large and maybe the way to stop it, is to make sure the computer is running right and turn off the system restore so it dumps the huge files, then restore it so it can start over.

I hate waiting 12 minutes on startup because the hd is wigging and wigging though the processor and system idle show nothing is happening. Secondly, the System Idle Process can be used to run specific power-saving tasks. For example, it can be used to shut down parts of a CPU that aren't currently being used; when a 'real' task comes in, the CPU wakes up all of its parts.

As processors have become more complicated and more efficient, the System Idle Process has also improved. So, it can now reduce processor clock speed and implement other power saving options. The System Idle Process should be at the top when your computer's not very busy.

Now, on the left pane you should notice the list of drives on your computer. Reboot your computer to save the changes. If you want to know more about the processes of disk defragmentation, you can read Windows 10 defragmentation step-by-step process.

Updating the USB drivers on your computer may fix your problem. Follow these steps to update the driver on your computer-. Device Manager window will be opened. After the upgradation process is complete, reboot your computer. After rebooting check if System Idle Process is still consuming a huge amount of processing power or not. If this problem is happening due to any driver , Driver Verifier is able to identify and fix the driver problem on your computer. Before moving ahead, you need to enable the minidump DMP files.

Follow these steps to create minidump files. Then, try opening the program again to see if it works normally. Why is my Windows System Idle Process so high? See our idle definition for further information and related links.
