hello there!
9.2 is making my current project unusable. after about 15 minutes, there are crazy CPU spikes going on
and constant CPU overload. reminds me of some years ago, dont remember what version.
whats going on? I even changed all clips (not many in use!) from "complex pro" to "complex".
didnt help. update is needed!

Try contacting support@ableton.com, they might be able to help you narrow down the problem.

yeah, my CPU's have been acting erratic ever since i upgraded to 9.2 as well....i have an email in to support. we'll see. luckily i don't run a midi or effects heavy template....it was definitely strange seeing my CPU meter jumping around like it was.

well, it looks like with installing max7 the project runs much better.
I have to watch it a bit..

Yes, Right at the end of writing a score for a feature and bam Ableton upgrades me to 9.2 and everything is F*cked, timeline stutters, cpu spikes, I can only hope I can downgrade to 9.1.10. because I have a week to finish this. I thought I'd turned auto updates off too.

It seems that I'm having the same problem. After I upgraded, I cannot play any of my projects - the CPU goes mad! Before, all had been fine. Helpful tips are much appreciated.
