I have a goFanco USB 3.0 to HDMI adapter that uses a DIsplayLink DL-3500 chipset. I have tried various drivers since last summer, including the latest driver 3.0 beta 2 23 Dec 2016 on Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite. With the previous 2 driver versions, I was seeing VERY high CPU usage on a 2012 MBP 13" 2.93GHz i7 (averaging around 22%, spiking to 99%). This last update helped reduce the CPU usage, but I still see it pop up on my CPU monitor program throughout the day (iStats Menu). I am keenly aware of hoggy processes since going from a quad core iMac to a dual core MBP for portability, so i hope this issue can be fully addressed, soon!
