Set CPU mode

#1

Hi, There are a couple of similar questions but without answer. How can I disable GPU utilization with Sublime?
I am Machine Learning expert, how do you think, is that good idea to use GPU on my PC? My GPU is 99% utilized all the time, and I totally can not use Sublime during models training, because scrolling takes forever.
What can I do, or I can only change tool to another?

We don’t (currently) directly utilize the GPU on Linux, but instead use Cairo. I’m no expert in the Linux graphics sphere, but it appears there is an OpenGL backend for Cairo. Perhaps your machine is currently utilizing the OpenGL backend, which is causing contention between Cairo and your ML applications?

Thank you for answer. I think this is the most probable case. Can’t I do something with that? Maybe I need to replace Cairo and build it without OpenGL in some way?
