Thanks for looking into this.

We have never seen this. What platform/OS/graphics card are you running on?

Is this just after startup or is it still hammering your machine after a minute 
or
so (there is class loading overhead at startup).

Can you do a stack dump and send it in so we can see if its something in Java?
You can hit the url:
   http://localhost:8788/stack.html  
which produces a stack trace.
