Well, changing mouse drivers does nothing. Changing the order of loading devices and TSRs does nothing.

So I suppose the workaround is to put DOS Idle in the Autoexec.bat file and launch applications from bat files that unload DOS Idle before they run the app and then reload DOS Idle when they shut down. CPU usage for a running application is pretty much the same with or without DOS Idle as a TSR. The big change is when the system is sitting doing nothing.
