The first thing we want you to do, is adjust the chart update interval to a higher value:
High CPU Usage | Inactive User Interface | Poor Performance | Long Time to Load Chart Data | Charts Reloading Often: 30.5 - Chart Update Interval

There is a global setting and a chart specific setting.


Also try enabling OS Timers:
General Settings Window: Use OS Timer for Charts (Global Settings >> General Settings >> General >> Update Intervals)
