I read a lot of other peoples problems with Mac performance, and I am really at a loss as to why I'm having such huge CPU issues. My memory seems to be going great, never any problems with that, but when I check activity monitor my % CPU activity for ESO is 98-160+% Which doesn't seem possible. (kernel_task is usually taking up 10-12% as well) I really don't know what is happening here. My OS is completely up to date, I run ClamXav often and have been keeping everything but the game running. If anyone else has had these issues or could help me troubleshoot, it would be greatly appreciated. I think it is what is contributing to my constant crashing.
