DSC: nictdl5.exe has consumes lots of CPU cycles when idle

Hello,

 

I have LabVIEW + DSC 2012 SP1 installed on my PC (CPU: Intel Pentium D 925, OS: Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x86). When I boot up my PC, without doing anything, the CPU usage by nicitdl5.exe consistently oscillates between 45% and 10%:

Why would this be? I have no shared variables deployed on my PC, and I have no databases in the Citadel 5 Universe:

These actions had no effect on CPU usage...

  • Stop the NI Variable Engine service
  • Stop the NI Citadel 4 Service
  • Unplug my PC from the network

...while this brought CPU usage to near-0:

  • Stop the NI Citadel 5 Service

 

I will be needing Citadel for some work. How do I bring down its CPU usage?

 

 

Thanks!
