I've been running 0.8.10/5.20 daily for about a week now, and have noticed an oddity relating to the MIPS readout on the header bar, which seems to display activity (sometimes /a lot/ of activity - up to 1400 on one occasion(!) and generally around 250-350 on my system*) regardless of whether any application is active (i.e., when TaskUsage will be displaying '0' or low single-figure activity levels). I haven't noticed this with any previous 5.xx version or 4.02, where in both cases the MIPS display conformed pretty closely to activity as perceived on the desktop. Selecting Settings-Reduce CPU Usage doesn't seem to affect the behaviour. Windows Task Manager gives the same readout as MIPS.
It's not actually a problem functionally, but I just wonder if something is going on that shouldn't be, and whether anyone else has seen similar behaviour?
