Hello Hannes,

The MacOS busy waits, which means you'll always get a 100% CPU load, no
matter if something's happening or not. Just run the Mac at a lower
priority than the rest of your Amiga, if this concerns you.

Another tip: don't use Tinymeter 4.22; it looks very nice, but does produce
too much Enforcer hits for me to trust it. It might be the cause of some of
your problems.
