battery 2 sucking up all my CPU

so i have a p4 1.3 ghZ 600 mB RAM running cubase sx3, and battery 2 is sucking up 20-25% of my CPU causing my work in progress to clip very badly. i have 4 instances of impOSCar running simultaneously and they take up minimal CPU. i only have 5 samples loaded into battery so far, and i don't really want to convert them to audio tracks yet because i'm not nearly ready to do so because i still have more percs to add.

i know my processor is somewhat dated, but i really don't have the cash to upgrade right now, and my production is at a standstill.

i've deleted all non-essential programs from my computer, and when i load up the current track i'm working on, the CPU load is at 70% and goes up to 75% when i play the track. when i take battery 2 out of the track the CPU load drops to 45-50% which is still somewhat high, but i can still work w/it...

any suggestions?

make sure you have the latest patch installed also, as there were some issues with excessive cpu usage on the first rev.....

This is normal. You need 2G of ram and 3 of Cpu to run without worrying about it. I know some people who need 6/8 gigs of ram

okay, battery 2 defaults to 16 mono and 8 stereo outs. i disabled all the mono outs and this reduced the CPU usage 10-15% so this fixed my problem and the production train is now moving once again.
