[Paraview] pv3 - server always shows 100% cpu usage

[John Biddiscombe]

When running pv3 (pvserver), utilities like top and any other system 
monitoring tools always show 100% (or at least whenever I look at them) 
cpu usage - even when nothing is going on and the server should have 
been idle for hours. I suspect something fishy is going on at the 
server-client connection and the server is constantly polling to see if 
any new messages are ready.

Can anyone confirm/deny or explain if there is a 'problem' - is this a 
design feature?

thanks

JB
