Repro5 was CPU intensive on my 5950x on single core with 8 voices, it used 40 bis 60 percent from a single core. Now I have upgraded to 9950x3D and it’s 14 percent on single core
You might want to upgrade Repro to the latest version as we fixed a performance issue with recent Ryzens. For Diva as well.

It was already updated. Before your last update Repro was a real nightmare and was hitting 80 to 100 percent CPU usage with 8 voices on some cpu intensive presets. The 16 core 5950x felt like a downgrade to my 10 years old Intel i7 5960x, which never used more than 50 percent on single core. After last update cpu usage was around 30 percent, but some presets still use 40 to 60 percent with 8 voices on single core and with multicore acivated less than 20.

My new 9950x3d uses on these cpu intensive presets around 25 percent with 8 voices, and performs most presets with 14 percent on singlecore. With multicore enabled, I never get above 15 percent, most presets use around 10percent cpu usage with 8 voices.
On my 7950X
Less than 1.5% with 8 voices, playing chord, PWM, long release, no multicore
32 buffer @48khz

Less than 3% in HQ
