Description

It would be optimal to allow LMMS to render in the background and free up CPU for other programs, it can get rather annoying when LMMS is rendering something and I'm trying to type a message and my letters fall into the text box in chunks rather than one-by-one!

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by examining LMMS's rendering path and how it uses CPU while the application remains interactive. Done means rendering can run in the background without making other programs or LMMS input visibly unresponsive.
