java API, win7, spoolersv.exe
« on: October 08, 2010, 08:59:14 pm »
I get spoolersv.exe process that kicks-in about 2 seconds after I open an .eap file from within a java application (run either from within eclipse, or from command line without eclipse). That process is the Print spooler, that is automatically started on boot/login (corporate settings).

That process then takes some 17% CPU. However, my program execution (processing the content of the .eap) that normally takes 2min, with the above process that kicks-in rockets to 23min.

When I stop the spooler service (with Computer->Manage...):
- I get several pop-ups from EA mentioning missing fonts,
- and some 12 OKs later, everything runs acceptably slow (the "regular" 2 minutes).

This is manifesting on Windows 7, Enterprise edition only, either on the LAN, or from home with and without VPN connection.

It's quite annoying that I cannot print anything in the office while developing with Java API (although it's good for the nature :-).

I do not see any problem of this kind when just launching EA with its GUI, only when running my app that uses EA Java API (my app just opens the EA repository and uses EA collections to retrieve everything in the model, so nothing related to HW).

Is this a known issue? Any fix to come soon?
