O.P. Hellish processor usage
I'm using 8.0 (8.0.0812.00), and my processor usage is insane when WLM is running. If I have two windows open, WLM skyrockets to around 80% usage. Just idling, no windows open, no nothing, it'll use about 15-20%. I tried searching for this, but I came up with nothing useful. Have there been any patches or fixes for this assclownery?

Its a fix, not completely but temporarily 
That will use more of his processor, the script is to reduce the memmory usage and subsequently requires the use of CPU to be able to do it. |

O.P. RE: Hellish processor usage
Yea, I tried that script. It only made things worse. And no, transparency isn't enabled. The only things I have on it are plus! v4.20.0.262, Ev0 v1, and a couple scripts (background changer and Enhancer). Though I was getting this crap with a clean install too.
I've tried 8.1, and it's the same thing.

RE: Hellish processor usage
Try to disable your scripts. I think Enhancer could be the cause.

Woraug, what are your system specs?
looking at the thread title (if it isn't exaggerated) I guess they're ok, but you never know...
you should have posted them in your first post IMO

RE: Hellish processor usage
Isn't there a problem with high CPU usage with Ev0? try unistalling that and see if it makes a difference.
