Slow posting on Intel Xeon E5-1630 vs i7

[mmemotorsport]

Hello guys.

I'm aware that Intel Xeon is not optimal cpu for mastercam post processor, but the results we are getting are very strange. Same file, mc version (2020), toolpaths get processed in 20s on i7 (3.4 ghz) while on xeon (3.7 ghz) it completes this in 200s so 10 times slower. Same thing happens on another xeon machine. All have 32gb of ram, only difference being that i7 has windows 7, while the xeons have windows 10.

Any ideas what to try, i'm out of ideas.

 

P.s. while processing, xeon barely touches the cpu load, overall at 15% and even individual core when processing is at 100% every few seconds, otherwise at 40-50.

Do you have

Do you have Mastercam using all of the CPU on the Xeon? You can control that in the settings, same place you tell mastercam to use the graphics card. The graphics card is another thing you should check. Make sure mastercam is using it.

make sure you enable multi threading. i think it defaults off
