Excessive CPU

With just two sites to check Simon uses 10% of the available CPU while waiting for the timers to expire so as to perform the tests.
This is excessive.

Re: Excessive CPU

Try closing the Simon window and see if that makes a difference. Updating the window every second can use some CPU cycles, though usually not that much.

You can set a General pref to automatically hide the window when Simon isn't front-most.
