So I have been using Automator's Watch me do to run a simply click in specific spot cycle in a Android emulator app repeatedly but I have been noticing that for some reason the longer the macro or cycle runs the slower it gets until it eventually lags so bad the computer almost has to be restarted. What could be causing this? I have seen it happen sometimes and quitting and relaunching Automator seems to resolve it temporarily but it just comes back after another long run cycle. If I catch it while it start to lag and freeze up the computer and force quit it it stops the lag almost instantly. While its lagging the mouse movement gradually gets slower and slower and not responsive and the beach ball spins while the mouse moves to the target points at a crawl.
