* Is this bug related specifically to tooling in Visual Studio (e.g. XAML Designer, Code editing, etc...)? No
**Problem description:**
For some people my applications use like 20-40% of GPU usage, for some even 90% when they're visible. The same applications work pretty fine for me and a lot of other people. When minimized to taskbar the GPU usage goes down to 0%. These people have extremely strong graphic cards like Nvidia 3080. My applications don't do any special that would explain the high GPU usage and I don't use any third party controls.
Happens as soon as there is another process running which uses Directx 11/12 (for example a game).
Disabling HW acceleration using `DisableHWAcceleration` solves the issue but thats just a workaround, not a fix. Its still not clear where the issue comes from.
**Actual behavior:**
High GPU usage
**Expected behavior:**
Low GPU usage
**Minimal repro:**
As this is per computer a "minimal repro" wouldn't help here.
