Comment Scrolling eats CPU cycles (Score 1) 284

I noticed this last night. Whenever I scroll, the process owning the window suddenly jumps eats 50% of its core. I found a thread on macrumours.com about the very same symptom. Nvidia 330 GT. It's scrolling, for crying out loud. My Macbook is a 6,2 (don't remember when in 2010 it was released). It doesn't crash, but it doesn't work particularly smooth either. I don't know if it's related to my configuration or not, but the whole GUI crawls when I compile something large, even after making sure that the Nvidia card is always on.

I've been telling my friends this would happen for more than a couple of years. They've always laughed at me. The sad part is most of them work for ISPs and yet they never saw the bigger picture. They've always seemed to think it was in everybody's best interest to support v6. Well, it isn't. v4 connectivity _will_ become a privilege that only content providers and a few others will enjoy. It's the **AA's wet dream come true, it will be far easier to fight 'piracy'.
