Run Time Menu MouseOver Max's Out CPU

My LV8.2, XP application nominally runs at 10-15% cpu. If I just scan (mouse over) the run time menu categories (File,Edit,Operatre,Window) which in my case are a mix of custom and app menu items, I can easily bring the cpu to 100%. If I click once on, lets say the File menu so that the whole tree is now showing and then scan across the other menu categories, theyby eliciting each categories tree, then cpu usage is relatively modest 30-40%. Anybody have any idea what might be going on here???

Strange,

what code are you using inside the vi:
  • menu activation event
  • dynamically build the menu

My application uses just the basic run time menu event cases, no dynamic menu building, all my GUI handling is quite ordinary. The interesting thing is that it takes much more cpu % when I do an unopened run time menu mouseover than when the runtime menus have been clicked on and the mouse overs display the whole menu trees.
