That is a bug in DDD 3.1.4 source code.  I do see 80% CPU usage
sometimes.  This bug was not in the previous versions.  However,
on my system it does not eat-up all the resources and makes the system
unusable.  NT Task Manager reports 80% CPU suage most of the time
but not all the time.  

I am trying to figure out if I can fix the problem in DDD source code.

I have uploaded a newer binary, do you want to try it.  It is is at

As i mentioned it does not make system unusable.  Could it be that I am using
Coolview instead of cygwin1.dll from the stock?
