... why can't you do something about the meter problems???

The meter isn't a programming problem, The problem arises because streaming data off the internet during the game, your CPU is multi-tasking dozens of other programs and applications in the background.
You need to shut down ALL unnecessary and non-essential services (like themes, application layer gateway, secondary logon, etc.), applications (such as Virus scanning and security programs that redirect the streaming data to scan it before execution), Adobe Air, Adobe Reader, Quicktime, Realplayer, java updater, and any other TSR, and running programs that distract hijack CPU time.
It also helps to disable the add on programs integrated into Internet Explorer (specifically your toolbars, BHO's, embedded Search Providers and Download Accellerators or multimedia feeds you might use).
Basically, you have to limit how much you ask of your CPU while playing.
.Finally, I find it helpful to open task manager because it allows you a graphical interface on the taskbar (near the clock) that I use to monitor when the CPU is extremely active. I wait until it becomes 'less busy' to start my swing, pausing briefly at the top of the stroke and double checking the idle state before releasing.
