With this version, I notice with a particular database program
(DataPerfect), setting hogthreshold to 1 causes printing problems (jobs not
sent to the printer without first doing other things in the application
unrelated to printing). This occurs even with a low printer timeout value.
If I set hogsthreshold to 2, this problem vanishes, but the CPU usage rises
from 0 to 86% and stays there.

With version 1.2.1, hogthreshold at 2 keeps the CPU at 60% and printing is
almost immediate at a timeout value of 10.
