During menu use the sim uses a lot of GPU resource. During the 13GB download from the content manger the sim pins a 3090 to the max. Hours of downloading with a pegging GPU is no ideal.
To repeat the issue. I update from the content manger.

Repeating pattern for ref.
It’s now pegged at 100% and getting a little too warm in here.
Too late now perhaps, but you could’ve used the Nvidia driver to limit background FPS to 20 or whatever. That’s what I did.
That’s not great overall as some background processes need to have resources. Tacview, discord, Navmap etc etc. I think the developers should stop basic menus pinning what is arguably one of the most powerful GPUs available today at 100%. If they can not, then they may need to look at a separate updating tool.
