Re[4]: TS2k eating CPU

Bilo,

How about the Commentary in systems.  Expert Commentary.  Is this a
factor?

One thing that happens every so often to me is a workspace becomes
partially corrupt and hogs CPU.  I don't know what causes it but my
workaround is this.  My main workspace is called Bigspace.  When I
built it I then saved it as Bigspace2, Bigspace3... up to about 5 of
them.  If I have a problem I shut charting down and open MyWork and
rename Bigspace to BigspaceC or just delete it.  Then I rename
Bigspace2 to Bigspace and open charting.

Needless to say NEVER RUN TRACKING CENTER.  This is a really fat hog.
