I've updated the new ATI application to 0.59. This fixes the 100% CPU problem, and adds a command line flag -r or --responsiveness-factor . This number just multiplies the estimate for how long things are expected to take to decide how to break things into smaller pieces to allow the screen a chance to redraw. Numbers greater than 1 should make things more responsive. 0 ignores any need for responsiveness for maximum speed. I'm not exactly happy with how it decides to break the problem down to keep the screen responsive; I think how it's done now can still cause slowdowns on some GPUs (and is kind of fragile), and you shouldn't have to do anything to keep things responsive. I'm not really sure the best way to do it. If you feel you actually need to use this, complaints here with what GPU you have might be useful.
