4. Hover mouse above this bubble

Actual Results:  
CPU usage goes on 100% (depends on how you move with mouse)

Expected Results:  
No CPU increase.

- Rapidly jinking the mouse up and down over the form objects on the left side for a minute or so got my CPU usage up to 67%; the average was closer to 30%.
- Mouse motion on the left, where there are no form objects, didn't have much effect.
- A motionless mouse had no effect.

I can't duplicate the behavior on other forms (e.g. this one).
