Windows 10, high load from WUDFHost.exe Windows Driver Foundation - User-mode Driver

AlbanRampon · 03-16-2018, 11:54 AM

Hello,

The 8.5 beta is now posted.
Details on the 8.5 beta forums on how to check the preview of the feature I have been mentioning, proving it is possible.
It explains scope, what to expect, and how to test for people who wish to test.
When it is ready, it will be released enabled by default.

Feedback is welcome there, rather than on this severely overloaded thread.

Regards,
Alban

After assuming this problem, I was about to throw the Docking and buy another one. But I realized that if you use another administrator account everything is fine. There is no lag or CPU at 100% / 85 degrees Celsius.

Today, i'll go to make a backup from my account and create another one. W10 is a piece of shit, always fucking with drivers or graphics issues.

Sorry for my english, i am spanish.

Because, obviously, when something is going wrong it always comes from Windows 10...

Below are my graphics specifications - the "USB Device" is a Plugable USB-C Triple Display Docking Station (https://www.amazon.com/Plugable-Char...8Q0504M91Z27KG)

I have three 4K monitors attached - the main one (Dell 27" using one of the two USB-C ports on my Yoga 920 laptop); two Dell 24" are attached to the Plugable dock.

The delay caused by the high CPU usage of the Windows Driver Foundation is maddening! I really hope you fix this soon...

Hello Old_Dude,
Have you tried to enable the reg key?
I see you are using hardware which would be covered by the new encoder path. At this stage, this is to check the CPU only, as the performance is low. It will be correct performance when released.
Details in https://displaylink.org/forum/showthread.php?t=65998
Kind regards,
Alban

So I've only very recently noticed a performance issue with this product connected to my laptop.

https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

In the past there has never been a noticeable problem with performance. However, now I notice in task manager that the the title of this thread, is using A Lot of CPU usage.

From what I've been able to research it's something with a driver and the "peripheral." I've tried completely uninstalling the driver and software, restarting and reinstalling it. Even resetting my machine.

It is connecting VIA USB 3.0 and when I do file transfer speeds it even reflects that, unless I"m watching a movie at the same time. Please note that in the past it never did that.

I'm reaching out to see what suggestions/recommendations people can make.

Again please bare in mind that one this performance issue has only recently -- within the last week -- happened. Also that I've completely reset my machine.

It is running Windows 10. It has a AMD A12 processor that has a 2.5 GHz rate with 3.5 over clock rate. According to task manager the culprit consumes 20-40 % if not more of the CPU. According to AMD manual and automatic checks I am running the latest driver. I also tried a slightly older driver and the problem remains.

If there's any other information you need, please let me know.

I did more testing and I believe I stumbled onto the solution. Oddly enough it was the BIOS of the computer -- there was an update that I was having a hard time finding a solution to. For now it seems to be working. I'll see about more thoroughly testing it this weekend. If I have different results I'll post back.

Same problem with HP universal dock 2UF95AA and Envy x360. Input lag, latency and 2-5% CPU usage. 1440p@60Hz display port connected display. If i connect monitor directly with the on-board HDMI, everything runs smoothly. I'm waiting for the official release with impatience.

I'm not sure if I see any difference. I have tried to update nVidia graphic drivers to the latest drivers but since then I can hear fan constantly spinning.
I'll try to uninstall the drivers and install the default version (I think it was v391.something).

Beside that I have attached picture with my findings while using nVidia inspector.

Can you have a look on it and see if there is anything wrong?
