I switched from a Windows laptop to a MacBook Pro recently and noticed that my battery life is way less than advertised. After doing some snooping, I found out that having the KoLmafia application open forced my machine to use the high performances discrete graphics card while on battery (even if I am not actively using mafia and it is just sitting in the background). Closing mafia allowed it to immediately switch to the integrated graphics card, and my projected battery life shot up immediately.
Is it possible to get around this graphics card requirement with mafia, or is it something inherent to Java that you guys have no control over? I know I can just close mafia every time I take my computer out with me, but if there is a way for me to leave it open and not eat up tons of energy, that would be preferable.
I am using the .jar file from http://ci.kolmafia.us/job/Kolmafia/.
