Animations are CPU intensive

Noticeable if you are reviewing dozens of reports on a long haul flight. Background reading:

This can also cause freezes when viewing reports/animations through a remote desktop client such as NX, which I expect is a fairly common use case. One work-around is to avoid mousing-over the animation images when viewing reports that way. The CPU issues only appear to show up when actively animating.

Good to know I'm not the only one running into this!
