Have you tried turning off dualcore and reproducing this?

Idled for 10 minutes with dual-core mode off; seems fine.
It only does it with this game, though. Wondering why...
It'd be nice to default dual-core to off on this game for future releases.
Thanks again.

The reason we don't is that a lot of people on slower computers would complain. Merging this into the dualcore timing issues. Thank you for your report!
