My MacBook Pro is a i5 dual core with 16GB of memory. The minimal application 
that exhibits the issue is just a simple window with web view and I used D3JS 
draw a simple graph (only 5-6 nodes). Then just let application sit idle there 
without doing anything. The CPU will heat up quickly. I put the application in 
VisualVM, other than JavaFX application thread, the next thread is taking up 
CPU time is QuantumRender. But my application is just sitting idle, no 
animation or any user activities.

Thanks,

Tai
