Cpu spiking using SD3

[Fabe_1]

in the new Studio one 5 SD3 is spiking bad just using SD3 and a couple guitar tracks and its maxed out my cpu, clicking and popping even crashing my PC. I’m using 2 cores on my Windows 10, 64 bit 4 core Sweetwater CS 250 V5 PC. It’s even spiking when playing back a few tracks, I use Ez drummer 2 and no spikes at all using multiple 3rd party plugins plus a couple native instruments, along w/ezdrummer 2, no problems at all, as soon as I use SD3 it starts spiking my cpu rendering it unusable. WTF?!?!?? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Superior Drummer 3 version: 3.1.7
Operating system: Windows 10

What is your audio buffer set to? How much RAM on your computer? How much RAM is your kit in S3 using?

I have a sweetwater CS 250 v5, 4 core, Windows 10 64bit, 8gb ram, I set SD3 to one core and that did the trick!
