Regarding "CPU hogging," there is nothing wrong with a graphics-intensive program using the CPU -- in fact, this is necessary to continually refresh the screen.

Regarding "CPU hogging," there is nothing wrong with a graphics-intensive program using the CPU -- in fact, this is necessary to continually refresh the screen. It only gets out of hand if the software does not give time to other applications who request it. In Chrome, if you minimize the window or switch tabs, then the CPU usage returns to normal. So, I do not classify this as "hogging." It would be interesting to see what happens if a second CPU-intensive task is running simultaneously, but note that here different users will have different preferences on priority.
