    In an effort to cleanup old/obsolete plugins, I'm updating a bunch of old tracks from Ozone 5 to Ozone 9; however, I've run into a problem where automation from Ozone 5 causes CPU spikes when transferred to Ozone 9. (ex. Ozone 5: 20% CPU > Ozone 9: 170% CPU)

    Has anyone else noticed this? Is there any solution?

    Using Ableton Live 10.

    I'm not sure about the automation but v9 has some issues with CPU/loading times. Perhaps will be corrected.
    I'd compare with a more stable version (v8).

    Thanks for the reply. If I remember correctly, I first noticed this in Ozone 7. (I never tried 6 to know if it began there.) It's the main reason that I left Ozone 5 installed this whole time.

    I just tested Ozone 8 and it does the same thing. It seems to be related to using any type of curves that would make continuous changes

    Looking further into it, I think I've found a setting that resolves the problem: I set the Freq. Resolution from 12 to 48 Hz, which drastically reduces the CPU usage. However, the CPU is still nearly twice that of Ozone 5 (@ around 40%) and looking back at Ozone 5's settings, the Freq. Resolution was still set at 12 in the options, so maybe there is something else I'm overlooking.
