Hey Frank,

BBEdit 10.5 (3221) right now on my i7 MacBook Pro:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PNAME CPU  CPU-TIME  TH  REALMEM  PVTMEM   SHRDMEM  VMEM      PTS  KIND   SNTMSGS  RCVDMSGS
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BBEdit  1.3  7:50.31   6   80.8 MB  34.0 MB  73.9 MB  152.8 MB  275  Intel  162,968  582,939
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A couple of days ago it was using an outlandish amount of CPU while in the background and idle.  More than 16%.

Since then I've restarted the app and closed a few windows, and I think I've rebooted as well.

I run iStat Menus, so I usually notice PDQ if something is acting up.

Do remember that it's a beta, but yeah keep an eye on it.

Best Regards,
Chris

To quote Rich's announcement about the 10.5 pre-release:


One final note: If you run into a bug in a pre-release version,
PLEASE DO NOT REPORT THE BUG TO THE LIST. This includes asking
about whether others have seen the same problem. Instead, please
send a bug report to <sup...@barebones.com> and we will deal
with it there. This will help us keep the list discussion on
topic and productive for all list members.

Steve

Restarting BBEdit makes the CPU-usage go down below 1% with the same windows open...

Definitely "something to keep an eye on" ;-) 

Keep up the great work!

Thanks, FrankS.
