The problem seems to have started when Pokerstars did their last update, but I don't believe it's the Pokerstars program that is causing the issue. I'm using V4.14.21 of PT4 with MacOS Sierra 10.12.2 Beta (16C41b)
If I run Pokerstars and PT4 together, my computer gets dangerously hot. I have to shut everything down. If I run PS alone, it warms up, but everything stays within normal limits.
Since the last PS update, I've noticed that the "Get hands while playing" option in PT4 seems to go extremely slow. If I play a bunch of hands without PT4 running and then go to import them by using the get while playing function, it imports about 1 hand every 2 seconds, whereas before it would import several hands per second. Also, even without pokerstars running, if I import a bunch of previously played hands this way, my computer starts overheating.
As I'm writing this, I have Pokerstars loaded and logged in, but no tables open. I also have PT4 running and set to import hands while playing, but there is nothing to import. My CPU temp is reading nearly 70C, it's hot to the touch, and fans are blowing at full. As soon as I stop the get hands while playing function, the temperature starts to drop.
I'm not sure if it's Pokerstars that is causing the problem, or if they changed something that is making PT4 work harder, but something is definitely off. I'm hoping you can help me figure out what it is.
Please let me know if there's any other information that I can give that would be helpful.Anyhone else having this issue?
