Oculus Update November 11th, Oculusvr.exe now using 25% CPU while wearing headset?!?!

I never checked what percentage of CPU it used before today's update, but now my games are running much worse than they were yesterday!!!!!!!?!?!?!??

Is there ANY WAY to revert back to the previous build?!

So much for my plan to do some VR gaming tonight..

with Oculus Home running and the hmd off, it's at 0% CPU.  As soon as you put the hmd on CPU usage jumps to between 21-23%...  This can't be how much CPU power it was using before can it?

And it's Oculus App Version 1.10.0.308075 (1.10.0.306913) 

Yesterday Dirt Rally was running wonderfully locked in at ultra settings and hitting a steady 45fps.  Now I'm getting constant drops to below 40fps, which causes stutters and gives me a headache.... 

Thanks guys!!!!  😞

I got that since 1.9, before that all runs perfect....
With senzza pesso opera experience, elite dangerous etc...from oculus library are unplayable, stutters, lag...
I tested that games and experiences from steam and runs perfect, all in high or ultra....WTF!!!!!!

Oculus is pushing people to update hardware? i suspect yes

I have the same issue. Can't play DCS anymore. My CPU usage jumps to 30% as soon as the rift is running !

Unless you're maxing out your CPU, I'm not understanding why 25-30% usage is a problem. I've played traditional 2D that has hammered my CPU a lot more than that.

How many cores are we talking here ? 20% of the core or the total cpu?

30% of the total cpu for me. Doesn't get loaded much more than that in game, and the game is still playable, but I get weird graphical tearing when things are moving fast and they give me massive headaches. Wasn't the case before Nov 11 update. Is there a way to revert the update ?
