Hi,

The problem is not that the polling is slowing other programs down,
but rather that it is presenting problems for our design recovery tool.

I tried getting rid of this frequent polling by changing the code
in WorkArea::WorkArea as follows:

  ...fl_add_free(FL_ALL_FREE, ...)... 

to

  ..fl_add_free(FL_INPUT_FREE,...)...

This seems to have fixed the problem and LyX still seems to be working ok.

What os is this?

And frequent (as in 50 times a second) does not harm anyting as long
as now actual work is done.
