Hi:
I've just started using epoch, so perhaps this is a well known problem.  

Platform:  Decstation 5000/200 PX.  Color:
Epoch 4..0a2  -- Xtm2d X driver.

Using the Xtm2d driver, epoch seems to consume vast amounts of CPU time,
even when the epoch window is iconified.  With the same executable on a
B/W Decstation 3100 with the Xws X driver, there is no problem.  
Conclusion -- the Xtm2d driver has some bug!   

Has anyone else seen this behaviour.  Is there a simple fix.  I would
like to use epoch on my machine, but not with this behaviour.  

Regards,
Mike Meyer    Statistics @ Carnegie Mellon
