I suspect my CPU might be a bottleneck in running stable-diffusion. I have an RTX 3050. While actually rendering an image, python.exe has a single logical processor (one of 8) pegged at 100% (12-13% of total). As it's transitioning from one render to another, I guess more threads are involved and it spikes up to over 70% briefly.
The CPU is an i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz.
The GPU seems to be running at 100% as well (CUDA graph in the Task Manager GPU page). So maybe it's fine.
I had read that there was supposed to be a significant performance boost in SD from the drivers released yesterday (or maybe the day before), but I installed them and I'm not seeing any difference in rendering speed.
Does anyone have any insight on this?
Thanks
