New Version a CPU Hog

[Kanegasi]

I just upgraded to 4.12.6 two days ago and noticed something different. My computer runs a little slower than usual when Limewire's downloading. I pull up my Task Manager and I notice Limewire is pulling 100% of my CPU if no other program is using it. This has never happened before. I run a 2.6 Ghz 1GB RAM machine and I usually have quite a few programs running alongside LimeWire such as Winamp, FireFox, mIRC, Gaim, even sometimes CS:S or WoW and even then I never had this problem. Can anyone offer suggestions or help? Thanks.
