Description

KSP 1.8.0 MH + BG

Intel I9 9900K
32gb of ram
nvidia 1080 gtx

I am doing a new career for 1.8. I went into the science building to get to the archive screen, go away from the computer
to come back and find that the liquid cooling fans are extremely loud.

The CPU was doing 66% usage which is extremely high for what it was doing at the time, being in the archive screen.

Here is the following data I was able to collect because it seems that the different buildings in the KSC screen cause
different CPU usages which then affect the archive screen.

New Career

1.7.3
All building lowest cpu 15% Archive Screen 30.5%

Science Building upgrade 1 16% Archive Screen 31.4%
Science Building upgrade 2 17% Archive Screen 32%
All buildings fully upgraded 15.5% Archive Screen 30%

1.8.0
All building lowest cpu 37% Archive Screen 51%

Science Building upgrade 1 51% Archive Screen 59%
Science Building upgrade 2 34% Archive Screen 50%
All buildings fully upgraded 18% Archive Screen 39%

I bought the CPU for KSP. that was the primary motivation.
Its up for the challenge, but other peoples computers are going to suffer if they have the same problem.

Not entirely sure what category this is, and will try Gameplay

This may require more testing and examples before it can be confirmed, denied, or determined to be happening on one or all platforms. Test was performed with an i7 7700K on Linux Ubuntu 18.0.4 LTS, idling at the Science Archives screen for some minutes, on builds 1.7.3 and 1.8.0.

Are there any mods in use, and are they updated for 1.8.0?

No mods, maybe its related to the settings I had at the time.
I will try them in a default configuration.

Heres more information via using windows 10 to show the CPU utilization

settings.cfg is from 1.7.3 after deleting the previous, set music = 0, set to showing version information

persistent.sfs is KSC with 1 RnD upgrade.

Added an additional 2 screenshots with a fully upgraded KSC to show how much lower the computer is working.
Might be more than just the RnD building that is having issues.
