Hi George I've tried this both with my user, running standard apps or me.Safari, Neooffice, R, Mail etc, and with a new user, with no startups and no apps running at all. I can open no apps, or many apps in any order and the behavior is still the same. If I open X11, and then focus on something else (e.g. writing this email) the cpu goes to 100 for X11.bin - with or without the pasteboard sync checked no difference there either. I'm pasting in a sample below. Ken On Feb 8, 2009, at 1:15 PM, George Peter Staplin wrote:

I'm using xquartz 2.3.2.1 on osx 10.5.6 on a 2.16 GHz intel core 2 duo. When x11 is running, but is not focused it begins to use 100% of my cpu until re-focused.
Repeatable 100% of the time on my machine.
I posted as Ticket #241
Can anyone help me diagnose the issue?

I think it's probably the pasteboard, but it could be something in quartz-wm. I think those are the 2 areas that deal with active/ inactive messages.
Thus far I haven't been able to duplicate the CPU load problem. These days I mostly use XQuartz for GLX testing, and testing changes to XQuartz. I don't run XQuartz for a long period of time, and it would probably help to do so again, with more apps.
What apps do you have running when it occurs?
Is there a certain pattern you have to start the apps in?
Does it always happen with the same set of apps running?
Does disabling the Pasteboard proxying affect the problem at all, or toggling it, while the cycle causing the CPU load occurs?
Are you using xclipboard, or Klipper? Do you have anything starting automatically via the startup scripts?
It might help to get a sample of the X11.bin.
