How can I limit GPU usage for every process?

  • 772

I'm trying to switch over back to Linux (as my primary OS at least) and one thing that's annoying now is mining etherium. On Windows even with 99% GPU usage everything runs perfectly fine and I can still watch YouTube and work on things without taking much of a performance hit but on vanilla Ubuntu the entire PC starts lagging and eventually freezes to a point of no return.

Is there any way I could limit the maximum GPU usage for every process? (I'm mining using Salad.io which is still in beta for Linux but it's basically just a wrapper for PhoenixMiner)

    you can see animations are smooth. However, sluggishness takes a couple of seconds to get rid of. You can take your UI and window manager to higher priorities ...
