I'm using 3.9-final-7067 image. Without DejaVu fonts GUI works much better, but it still seems to be very heavy for my machine (for example, scrolling of the "Changes that have been done in 3.9" window gives 100% CPU load).
The Squeak mouse logo - with the eyes which follow the cursor - takes quite a bit of CPU resource. Making it smaller with the yellow halo handle, or indeed removing it completely will reduce the CPU load considerably.
Thanks, but it seems not to be the case: there is not such mouse keeper in the Squeak I have. But it reminds me the old anecdote, when a doctor asks the patient if he smokes: "No, I don't", - "It's a pity, you could try to drop it then". :)
