Tim,
Here is a link to the discussion
http://www.mapleprimes.com/forum/cpu-use
I am a teacher and I used Maple quite a bit to make tests and
handouts. It seemed to only happen in document mode where I was using
pretty much just text and 2D formulas with some graphs. If I opened
the doc for presentation it would be fine until I did any editing.
Then I could see the cpu jump up in the activity monitor and it would
stay there until I clicked outside in the finder. It may have been
related to something else in my system. I never figured it out. I just
stopped using it for the most part.
