Could you just stop having that special configuration please? :p
Well when XBMC is windowed we really put some afford into it for getting it rendering slow (and don't burn the cpu). If the XBMC window is 100% covered (either by one or multiple other windows) or otherwise invisible (other desktop and the like) you really should see that the cpu usage of the XBMC process drops down to nearly 0 %...

Thank you, will test that tomorrow. But maybe there are other apps, which could be always on top. So this should be just a temporarily solution.

Well patches are welcome. I also hate it to hardcode the windowname here but there is no way to detect those windows. Osx reports an alpha of 1.0 for the shades window. So its not transparent in the view of XBMC and we have to treat it as if it hides the xbmc window behind it (and therefore reducing the cpu load by throttle the renderer).
