      Intel i5-4590 CPU
      Intel HD 4600 driver 10.18.14.4578 (could not install latest version though)

    Description

      Starting Qt-Creator 4.3b1 out of the box (equivalent to QT_OPENGL=desktop) results in high CPU usage consuming about half a CPU core's performance (12% on my 4 Core system)

      Using QT_OPENGL=software and QT_OPENGL=angle is both fine.
      Tested with both 32bit and 64bit Version
