DexControl.exe
I think DexControl is great and the version that you attached did improve the performance, however, I think there is still quite a bid of lag. For example, I have a Intel Core i5 2520M processor (8 GB ram) and when I click on one of the desktops from the "Full Screen Preview", there is still a slight lag when zooming in. This is normally ok, but if my laptop is running on battery (and in Power Saver Mode), then this lag becomes pretty bad. Looking at the task manager, I can see that the CPU usage of DexControl increases substantially during this process. Furthermore, if I switch between desktops too quickly, the program seems to crash and I can no longer switch between desktops (I can get to full-screen preview, but clicking on a desktop, doesn't do anything).
Therefore if you don't think further optimization/caching is possible, then an option to turn off the animation may resolve this problem.
Again, thank you for developing a great product.
