Hello,
The VTK page (http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classes.html)
exhibits similar behavior using Safari on OS X 10.3.3. CPU usage is
consistently between 25% and 40%, as opposed to 0% to 15% without the
VTK page open.
The ITK page (http://www.itk.org/Doxygen14/html/classes.htm) does not
increase CPU load.
