Chunky uses more CPU than allocated between samples #9

When chunky is done rendering one sample, it will spike in CPU usage (I assume as it updates the render preview and other things).

The CPU limiting in Chunky works by limiting how many samples are rendered per unit of time. Limiting the CPU during other operations is probably not worth the effort, especially since you can use the operating system to limit the CPU usage on the process level.
