I wouldn't expect an Intel i7 Extreme with 32 Gig ram, SSD and a water cooled processor overclocked to 4.5 Ghz and capable of 150 frames per second with a full physics engine running to be the problem but I see it on there too when on this site
It's never the hardware, always the crappy software offered up these days by Microsoft/Google/Apple/Garmin/Adobe/et al. The art of writing efficient software is lost on the new generation of glueware developers. Most of the browsers are bloated and very CPU-intensive, and neither Windows or OS X is getting slimmer either. No amount of RAM/water-cooling is gonna fix that. What's the adage again? Software is a gas, it expands to fill its container.
