CPU issue within the program not the PC

Anything that doesn't fit into other topics goes here!
When I add a number of Vestige vst's the CPU in the program spikes and goes into the red when listening to what I have created so far, but the PC's CPU usage isnt barely being used. Can someone help me fix this issue?
I have seen the same thing which I think you describe. In my case, I'm on an old Windows 10 PC. My power usage profile is set for power saving.

Have you noticed any dropouts? The manual says dropouts can occur if the LMMS CPU monitor goes into red. But I have not noticed any dropouts, so I am happy so far.

I have noticed that some VSTs take a long time to load on my PC. But that's not really a serious problem. Once they are loaded, everything is good.

Basically for me there are no problems running LMMS on my old PC.

Maybe if you provide more technical details about your setup and the exact conditions that occur, someone who knows the LMMS internals can explain?

Have you made changes to latency in settings?
What are they?
Spiking-outs can also happen if you not restart properly daily. do that (SH+shut-down)
