Post Fans at High Speed.

Fan at high speed
Does your Macintosh fan run at full speed while playing Toontown?
Yes
.
It does this because it is making the graphics card work really hard.
Since the graphics card is working hard & the fan is running at high speed, this will cause the computer to have moderate heat on the surface where your computer is.
Be very careful if you are using a Mac laptop on carpet, or on your legs. If on the legs put something between you and the computer or your legs will get fried, like mine, such as a cooling pad.

Actually, TT (on Mac or Windows) will run one CPU at 100% while its on. The graphics aren't the problem, at least on modern machines.

My Fans go high too. One CPU usually is running 100. (On Windows, i usually dedicate toontown to my 2nd Cpu to allow for easy web browsing, etc.) Also, if the memory leak is still an issue on macs, I notice that the memory leak also causes processor usage to increase.

If it isn't a problem, you could put the laptop on a table and elevate it with a few Lego bricks in the back.

This is called COMMON SENSE.

When a laptop starts to get hot, a natural reaction is to move it off your legs.
