Jedit 5.4.0 - hi CPU usage when text is selected and windows put to back
Submitted by edinburger on Thursday, 24 May, 2018 - 12:10
I'm facing a strange behavior with Jedit 5.4.0

If I select some text in jedit, put another App in front of jedit then bring jedit back to the front by clicking on the jedit taskbar icon then Jedit (java process) starts consuming lots of CPU (up to 40% on a 2 core i5 system)
CPU utilization will only go down if I either click into the Jedit window or any of the Menu items.

disabling all Plugins did not help

I'm running Jedit under Win 10, java version "1.8.0_171"
