I'd be curious about that... I haven't heard anything, but then I haven't
looked either. :)

As I've said before, the only time I've ever seen an actual program run
slower when Prime95/NT was running is when I'm running any sort of video
capture, such as NetMeeting.  NetMeeting vid conferences just run DOG slow
when I have my ntprime going, but if I stop the service, then the video
picks up greatly.

I figured that perhaps the codec just ran at idle priority also (which would
make sense to me anyway), so you have two CPU intensive things competing for
resources...
