Hi mpurses , I have to congratulate first on such an amazing skin suite . I really love the space skin with world map & time zones but I am not utilizing it as it has a significant drain on my CPU resoucres its constantly @ 35%. Is that the case for you or others as well or is there an issue in my setup ? Is there anything that could be done ?

Make sure you have Hardware Acceleration enabled in the Rainmeter settings. The way Rainmeter renders images requires the GPU. So any image heavy skin will need this enabled. There is not that much continuous CPU calculations being done in the skin, it's just Rainmeter's image rendering engine. Let me know what that decreases the CPU to.
