Just as broken as ever for me.
80+ CPU on normal, no animations at all on low_CPU.
That's strange behaviour even with a very low end graphics card like a Radeon HD 5450. What else do you have running on your system? If you have no animation at all with the low-CPU versions, then the chances are that you're running something else that's getting in the way.
Candi Desktop runs at a very low priority. That means two things:
- It won't slow down your entire system (your "computer feels slow" impression is probably based on seeing high CPU usage rather than any real sluggishness)
- If other software uses up 100% CPU, then the animation will pause. Once again, this is so that the animation doesn't slow down the rest of the system. However, I wouldn't expect this to happen unless CPU usage is up at 100%
