My computer continues to whir when Eufloria 2.0.5 is completely minimised.
Surely its CPU and Graphics usage should drop when it's not on the screen?

Mine did/does that too. I found (and this isn't necessarily your problem, it is a bit weird) that vacuuming the air vents on the tower unit helped - they were plugged up with dust. It was overheating or something, and cleaning the holes freed it up nicely.

Yeah, I don't handle things like the window being minimised, so the likelihood is that Eufloria just continues to render as normal. I'll have a look at this if I've got time but I'm not considering it a priority at the moment.
