The last Skype "improvement" of my experience, now causes any
graphics oriented software to almost choke while Skype is running.
Geeze, first it required me to upgrade to a later version of
Internet Explorer, (a program I never use on my desktop), then,
next time I opened DXO Optics Pro the response of any control was
so laggy I at first thought that the program had frozen. Photoshop
was noticeably slower too, even a lightweight program like
Irfanview was effected. Tried to open the Task manager* and the
tasks and programs didn't have enough video memory to populate the
lists when it finally appeared, some controls didn't initialize.
I know I don't have the most advanced video card, or the most video
memory, but sheesh, the graphical interface on Skype is pretty
underwhelming, what the fuck, (excuse my language, but I'm a bit
frustrated here), is Skype doing with all those resources.
*Which really told me nothing, when I finally got it to work since
it's mostly silent on video usage. Had to run a video analyzer.
