- teh_klev 5y agoBack in the day, ~1995'ish I was a tech supporting Windows NT4 (amongst many other things) and I had a customer with a beefy dual processor server living on premises in a closet. For some unknown reason NT would slow down and overall performance was a bit rubbish. It turns out that the customer had turned on the pipes screensaver and it basically soaked up all of the CPU time. Fortunately my customer was more agreeable to disabling this compared to this similar story from those days of yore: https://thedailywtf.com/articles/A-Fat-Pipe https://thedailywtf.com/articles/A-Fat-Pipe
