I had to reboot my machine this morning, cube running 3.0, and all of a  
sudden things are ssslllooowwwww!!!!!. NPERFMon says that System CPU usage  
is about 100 percent. ps says the culprit is atalkd. Does anyone know what  
is going on. I presume that atalkd is related to the abortive attempt in  
3.0 to connect to appletalk, which I have turned on so I can use my Mac  
printer. Correct?? Bob

My problem is with console (Window Server).  It took up 12.7% of cpu time
when no other application running.  If I run Microphone, and do downloading
it goes up to 60% for console (Window Server).  Why????  It really slows down
the machine.  I am running NS 3.0

It would be interesting to know if Microphone turned out to be the culprit.
When I used to run Synapse on the Neuron there were no such problems when
downloading (with Microphone you can't really do anything else while d/l'ing).
Same with tip and zmodem- no problem. 
 
Perhaps Software Ventures has newer drivers for the various modems they 
support? Microphone has potential, but the downloading issue and the updating
of the screen could do with a small fix.
