I wonder if I am the only person with this issue, or if others get it too...

I know that it's not exactly normal for people to be using IMEs, but here in Japan it's kind of a necessity...
I was playing Mario Kart Wii today and noticed that it had seemingly slowed down for no reason, and I don't mean a little bit either - a lot. I can normally play this game at 100% speed constantly but it was going at about 80-85% speed.
I'd not changed any settings and the computer wasn't overheating or anything similar.
Then I noticed in the top left corner of the screen the IME input box flash up for just a second - I turned off the IME and voila! Full speed again.

Anyway, this isn't a cry for help or anything - it's simple enough to turn the IME on and off, but does anyone else notice this behaviour?

I don't think it puts any stress on the CPU at all. It allows you to type double-byte characters on a regular keyboard. It's used to let you type foreign language characters like Japanese, Chinese and Korean.

I guess it must have just been my system or a coincidence. Thanks for replying!
