From 092155465710b22ec9a99820ce6400a889580805 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Magnus Hagander Date: Wed, 17 Aug 2016 10:39:22 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Disable update_process_title by default on Windows The performance overhead of this can be significant on Windows, and most people don't have the tools to view it anyway as Windows does not have native support for process titles.
