I am pretty convinced now that what I am seeing is not caused by NetBeans. It appears to be caused by implementation details in AquaProgressBarUI. In the version I looked at, it starts a timer when the progress is not 0 or 100% and does a JComponent.repaint() for each timer iteration. By contrast, the BasicProgressBarUI does this only when the progress is indeterminate. I guess AquaProgressBarUI does this beause the progress bar used to have a sort of "glowing" effect in the past, this may be a leftover from this. The repaint() then appears to be causing "something" in the OGL render pipeline that, under certain conditions that I do not understand, causes to put load on the GPU. Interestingly, this is not shown in Activity Monitor as GPU usage, just the power consumption goes up. Which I would say is correct looking at temperatures measured by the machine and my lap temperature sensor. So, not a NetBeans issue and thus closing here. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
