Quick update. I've been looking into this a little more today and have found that sierra only seems to lock up on the chartbooks when CPU hits 100% on the core. I tested this by loading one of the complex chartbooks in windows, reducing the number of charts in in from 5 to 2, saving it and then running it in linux mint. The chartbook opens fine and runs great up until I zoom out fully on one of the charts. Then sierra hangs and I have to force quit it.

I've tried using 'taskset' to allocate sierra process to a specific CPU and then used 'nice' to try and stop other processes using the same CPU but that's not pushing other processes off the CPU for some reason. I don't think this would help in any case as the other non sierra processes sharing the CPU are barely using any cycles.

I also installed Sierra from scratch using wine and opened the same cut down chartbook on there but same issue, so don't think the sierra settings are to blame here.

Also worth noting is the fact that i'm using Ryzen CPU. Although, I've not found any issues like this reported online


Does anyone else have this issue if the core running the sierra process hits 100%?

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Sunny
