Hi. I'm a computer engineering student and use with Hugs98, which helps me a lot in learning fuctional programming. I've noticed that the WinHugs application eats 100% of the available CPU even when it isn't doing any work, just blinking the cursor!!! I use CPUIddle to cool-down my processor and I saw a noticeable increase in CPU temperature whenever WinHugs was opened, although out of focus and without any task running.
This sounds as though it could be due to the fact MSOS uses cooperative multitasking, and WinHugs doesn't release any time to other programs. (In which case it is not a "bug", but a "feature".) Hans Aberg
