Blue Iris CPU at 100% and drive over allocation

[atrain99]

Hello I have Blue iris up and running with Deepstack AI for alerts via pushover. I have the cameras to constant record. Recently I'm getting drive overallocation and my CPU is at 100% . I've also noticed that the bottlenecking may be causing some of the Deepstack AI alerts to not be pushed.

My PC specs are :
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8700K CPU @ 3.70GHz
16gb ram
Nvidia Gpu RTX 2070 Super
Windows 11 Pro
4Tb Ssd Internal Drive- OP System & BI DB location
2Tb Ssd Internal Drive

I've attached screenshots of my current Blue Iris configs :

Any Help to lower CPU and proper config would be so appreciative -Thanks

Are you using the computer for anything else?

Having Windows and BI on a 4TB drive and storage on a smaller 2TB drive isn't taking advantage of the storage you have.

Is anything else on the O drive?

Do you have indexing and system restore turned off on the O drive? If the drive doesn't have anything else but BI video then I suspect you are losing half the drive to system restore images.

Have you done all of the optimizations in the wiki?

Optimizing Blue Iris's CPU Usage

Blue Iris uses a lot of CPU time. In most Blue Iris installations, your CPU is the limiting factor which determines how many cameras you can have. As such, it is extremely important to optimize your configuration to ensure you can get the most out of your system while consuming the least...

Hello and thanks for responding so I am not using the pc for anything else . The “o” drive is only used for BI And I will take a look to see if those restore settings are on . I am gonna go through the wiki and the current config I have is from a YouTube channel I saw some videos on in regards to BI configs .

For the indexing and system restore settings of my “o” drive where would I find those to check and turn them off ?
Thanks
