to add something to this what also seems to help alleviate the problem
is to change the frequency in which the screen updates happen..so show
the progress every 10% instead of every .1% or 1%.

I recently ran a Windows app from a major publisher that used a very big
percentage of both the CPU and the GPU (my computer didn't meet the
minimum specs) without any complaints at all from the OS. High CPU, but
totally responsive. Worked just fine.
And that's one tiny snowflake on the tip

IIRC, earlier discussions here about this do recognize that it's about a
certain finickiness with Windows, but also acknowledged that this seems

I don’t think this is an issue exclusive to LC. My main Access DB has code that

We've discussed many times here the anomaly in which an LC process on
Windows is running quite fine, but when it's working really hard the OS
starts monkeying with the window appearance, adding the string
"application is not responding" in the title bar.
