A decent app, but after an hour or so of use it starts using 50% of each processor on my 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo MacBook running 10.4.10. When I check it out with Activity monitor it says that the culprit is Java, and when I force-quit Java Cabos quits too. Limewire has the same problem, but Activity Monitor doesn't say that Java is the big processor user, just Limewire. This is a major problem.

I couldn't agree more. It's not the kind of application you can leave running all day in the background. Then again, nor are any of the alternatives.I've always had memory complications with poorly performing Java code.
Lately, I have to choose my applications carefully. It's very hard to find a Java application that performs the way it's supposed to, or performs anywhere near that of an application written in Cocoa.
