Still looking though, simming now for a few hours!
Yeah I wondered if it was ticker related. But its not consistent. The CPU problem only happens over time. At first I can be at a screen with the ticker and have no CPU problem whatsoever. There's another issue underlying this, its not that simple. Even if it was the ticker it shouldn't use %50 of the CPU on a 3.2 ghz machine.
