It's a wxWindows problem. When running on Windows it uses 1% of the CPU when idle, and the Mac OS version uses exactly the same source code. I just tested 7.5 beta 3 on OS X, and it indeed uses between 30% and 40% of the CPU when idle. If anyone wants to fix this, the source code for wxWindows is on: http://cvs.wxwindows.org/ Regards, Ed Hamrick ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
