Have you debuged this code under Lynx/Linux ??

It happens something similar to me when I was makin' some improvements to task list applet, I overlapped widgets and tasklist waste all CPU cylces trying to redraw one widget after another in an endless loop with the expose_event cb.

Maybe something similar happens to you.

What exactly does your application do?

Good luck!
