I just downloaded the new x-men 2 clock from X2 (http://www.x-men-the-movie.com) Very nice. I have noticed it kills my machines performance when it is functioning. Even in the minimized mode it chews up clock cycles. I don't know if it is an IceProjector problem or if it is the developer of the clocks problem... most likely the clock continues to count even when minimized, not good I have to turn it off when working. I must say that is a wonderful interactive item just gotta fix the cou use when minimized.

Thank you for your information.
It seems the author didn't use the spritebound fscommand we provide to improve the performance.
We will try to contact them to give the suggestion.

After inspection, we found the program is designed with 800*600 document size. As it didn't use Spritebound fscommand to specify the repaint area, the program repaints the whole 800*600 area by each frame. That's why it slow down.

We have try to contact the auther of this program but have no clue in their website. If you know how to contact them, please let me know.

Best regards,
