DashClock seems to be spawning system processes every second... My computer stopped responding at 264 (up from the usual 80 or so).
I wonder if there's a cure - it sure looks good on my desktop.
It is not a bug: ImageMagick is used by ClockMagick and so also by DashClock, which spawns 3 threads at a second. Priority of CONVERT has been put down at 19 so system usage is much lower than ClockMagick's one that uses only one thread but fills CPU's time... The only solution is that of not using ImageMagick, wich is the best rendering engine... any idea?

i like this clock but when i downloaded it, it did not have any hands on it. it may just be a glitch.

It eats the CPU. Uses 50% on my relatively fast computer.
On Intel Centrino Core Duo it eats quite nothing... what CPU do you have? You're the only one with this problem, as I can see... :-(
I have an intel core duo and it eats 25% cpu power. FuriosClock e.g. only uses 4%.
