Research direction
Locate the Show Node Power processing entry point and trace where work pauses when PoB loses focus. Check how background processing currently behaves and whether any existing setting controls it. Done means Node Power continues populating while PoB is unfocused, or an explicit option provides that behavior without disrupting normal use.
