Frame rates and CPU load
When you start streaming Alvium CSI-2 cameras with a GenICam compliant viewer,
the maximum frame rate may not be achieved for maximum resolution at first. In
addition, the CPU load may increase significantly. After a few minutes, the stream
has stabilized, the maximum frame rate is achieved, and the CPU load decreases by
20%.
Lost frames with Python API
If the camera is operated at high frame rates and low exposure times, initial frames
may get lost.
