Windows: "not responding"

[Ralph DiMola]

I just got "application is not responding" from the Win 10 Task Manager for
about 10 seconds before it came back. I don't say that LC could not improve
on this but if one of Windows core utilities can't avoid it, then in my
humble opinion LC can only mitigate it but never solve it.

Subject: Windows: "not responding"

We've discussed many times here the anomaly in which an LC process on
Windows is running quite fine, but when it's working really hard the OS
starts monkeying with the window appearance, adding the string "application
is not responding" in the title bar.

In all cases I've see thus far, the app itself is fine, but apparently it's
not yielding enough cycles to the OS for the OS to feel comfortable about
the relationship.

Based on early conversations here, I had thought that a solution addressing
this was in progress, but checking the bug DB I can't find even a report for
this at all, let alone one noting "In Progress".

Anyone here know the status of this issue?  Should I file a new report on
it?
