Anything unusual in the log?
I have seen this happen on a RPi2, but only if it fetches an update. It is almost like the autodownload feature bogs down the RPi2 completely until it shows the update message. Bus as wm4 says, a log will help.
Normally I wouldn't expect update downloading to ruin redraw performance - at worst I'd expect that using the UI would be slow to load new pages, or that playback from remote locations is hampered.
Yeah that looks odd unless download caps the CPU but wouldn't expect that either
Thanks for the replies! I forgot to mention that this is on OSX on a macbook pro with a discrete graphics card. I really don't think it is a problem with lack of CPU power. Will update with logs soon.
So, I looked in the logs. I'm not sure what exactly I am looking for but there were a few suspect "warning" lines:
2017-05-02 10:29:11 [ WARN ] PlayerComponent.cpp @ 504 - cplayer: Warning: option --hwdec-preload was replaced with --opengl-hwdec-interop and might be removed in the future.

2017-05-02 10:29:12 [ WARN ] PlayerComponent.cpp @ 504 - opengl-cb: Function glMPGetNativeDisplay from extension GL_MP_MPGetNativeDisplay not found.
All definitely unrelated.
@sprig : are you still having this issue with recent builds ?
Closing due to the lack of feedback. Feel free to reopen with more details if needed.
After starting PMP, the first moments (and sometimes much longer) have such poor performance that I can see individual redraws of the screen and it looks terrible. No other app exhibits even remotely such poor performance.
