Performance Issue with parallax scrolling

Choppy parallax scrolling on Surface Pro

from Stardock Forums

I'm seeing some performance issues on my Surface Pro tablet.  When plugged in, the parallax scrolling works fine.  When I unplug the computer, scrolling becomes choppy.

I have my computer set to switch to power saver profile when on battery and high performance when plugged in.  I've verified that if I switch profiles while on battery, the issues goes away (but so does my battery).  

Does Decor8 use different scrolling than the default windows 8?  If I uninstall Decor8, Win 8 performs parallax scrolling just fine in the power saver profile. What is your code doing that is requiring more "horse power"?  Will there be a fix for this?

 

Thanks!

This. Overall liked the software but fairly bad parallax scrolling even when plugged-in (Samsung Smart PC Pro 700t). Will buy when this is corrected.

 

Love the addition of the clock on the Start screen.
