Also I tried to extract files from a Winrar archive, it had no effect on my computer. At the moment I am compressing Starcraft 2 folder with normal compression ratio, Winrar is using %60 of my CPU but nothing is slowed on my computer. When Steam downloads everything goes slow motion mode.
Edit.
While Winrar compression goes on, I have around 90-110 FPS in World of Warcraft. When Steam downloads it, my FPS drops to 6-7
I still have same issue.
No other game clients like Origin, GoG, Epic, Ubi causing this issue. For testing I downloaded Elder Scrolls Online (85.7 GB), my computer froze a lot. Gaming wasn't possible, even Spotify skipped song parts.
I don't know what to do. This behaviour is not acceptable. It is not about compression, it is about optimization. It has been 7 months since I opened this topic and it seems Valve don't care about it.
Hey I found a solution!
1. Go into steam Settings, under Downloads
2. Click the "Limit bandwidth to:"
3. At the box "Enter a new value below", enter a value your CPU can handle
I have it set to 50000 (50MB/sec), since my CPU is at about 93% usage at that speed.
Hope that helps :)
If there is uncommon and unusual issue, basic troubleshooting would be uninstall and reinstall.
Have you reinstall Steam Client?
It would uninstall all game and need to reinstall again though.
But it may worth to try if you have good internet plan (ex. no data limit)
I was trying to compare two CPUs to find out how much faster one would download on Steam compared to the other, then stumbled upon this thread. I am a necromancer now, apparently.
