Works perfectly. The only problem I have is with the Expose corners. Here's a fix to enable and disable them within one click.

There's couple of UI bugs but that's all so far. And nope, no drops in FPS

Nope. Unless I put pillow under it when I'm on my bed. Normally it's on my lap and it doesn't heat up that much.
