Runescape running extremely heavily? Empty Runescape running extremely heavily?

Before botwatch, my laptop would run the downloadable runescape client at 30% CPU max, at high graphics even with audio.
Then when botwatch was introduced, this bumped up to 70% CPU minimum at LOWEST graphics and no audio.

Now recently since all the bots have been getting banned, RS takes up 105% CPU minimum at LOWEST graphics and no audio.
This is still so high without any kind of movement in the game and being fully zoomed in.
It's plain ridiculous, I can't even be online for more than 5 minutes without my fan going apeshit.

Has anyone else experienced these problems?

The downloadable client only has Java as far as I'm aware?

Could you try playing on chrome and using the html5 settings?

Since rs3, rs now demands a lot more and i believe html5 deals with this demand a lot better (in most cases)

I don't see any difference on my desktop but my laptop is playing it quite sluggishly, but it may be because of the rs3.

The only RS3 "thing" about my rs are the interfaces, the game itself is exactly the same as I still play on the lowest graphics.

At the release of RS3 (and the next days) I was also running it just fine at 70% CPU still. But now since the mass bot bans it's been at 105%+, which leads me to believe this has jack shit to do with RS3. Also because this already happened in the past when botwatch was released, it was EXACTLY from that day on.

Perhaps Jagex is putting botwatch on overdrive for some reason. It may be temporary.

I sure hope so, even in the lobby, RS takes up 50% CPU, which used to be 20 when being logged in took 70%.

Sounds to me like it's targeted at laptop computers. My desktop is doing just fine on maxed graphics and all and my computer isn't exactly a $2,500 gaming computer.

My laptop, which cost about 400 eur is playing rs no lag. Some options are turned off like anti aliasing and bloom, but rest is on max I think.

I am running windows though. Does it possibly only happen on macs?
