Was a thread about this a few months back, but I'm unable to find it. Program was first written for dos and converted to windows this results in polled type behavior vs interrupt / event behavior. A option to increase sleep time exist but it does effect the mouse. Guess you could also lower it's priority in the task manager but if you have another compute bound program like seti at home then the program may appear dead or hung.

Running LH3b on a 299 MHz PII with XP Pro, Control Panels/Administrative Tools/Performance/System Monitor reports essentially 100% Processor Time. Notwithstanding that, it will happily run another application or two without any apparent additional lag -- so 100% apparently doesn't mean "can't spare any time for anything else."
