High CPU Usage IE 5.5

Please note that official support for this menu version has now ceased. There are still plenty of users, though, and the forum is still running. Some of our long-time users may be able to help you out.

High CPU Usage IE 5.5

Post by Indy »

We currently use the DHTML menu Version 3.5.15 on our intranet Sharepoint portal. Approximately 95% of our 30000 intranet user's are using IE 5.5 on NT 4 workstations, and are finding that the CPU usage is extremely high, some as high as 90%, but in general around 30%. Other user's using IE 6 SP1 on XP Professional find that they don't have this problem with CPU usage being negligable. Is this a known issue, and if so, is there any fix you can recommend. We have found that upgrading the NT 4 workstations to IE 6 SP1 solves the problem, unfortunately upgrading everyone to IE 6 SP1 is out of the question at the moment, hence any fix or solution that you can provide would be much appreciated.

I would suggest upgrading your menu system to V5. My V3 menu was sluggish on our six hundred P2 NT4 systems at our school, but runs much better with V5.
