I believe my first suggestion was incorrect, I apologize. This should do it:

True

Are you able to provide a patch for this? I've tried but it doesn't seem

to make any difference, so I expect I'm doing something wrong.

To my mind this would be preferable, as it means we could take advantage

of any power-saving features AppNap provides without causing performance

problems. I can't see anything anywhere about how to do it, though, so

perhaps it's impossible.
