OSX QuickLookSatellite-Legacy eating CPU usage

(OP)
Just posted this in the Dassault DraftSight forum, but since their iQuestions search function sucks and no one will likely find it, I am posting it here as well. Hope nobody minds.

After my current version of DraftSight spontaneously expired and I had to upgrade to V1R3, the Activity Monitor on my laptop was showing CPU usage for QuickLookSatellite Legacy near 400% and the temp gauge on smcFanControl was racing up to around 190(F).

Did a search and found this link to a discussion in the Apple forums as an FYI to other users who might be having this issue:

Going into the DraftSight.app contents and deleting FxQuickLookDrawing.qlgenerator seems to have fixed the problem.

Cheers

OSX 10.8.2 | DS V1R3
