Is it X11.bin that is using the CPU? The sample provided in the previous email shows it waiting almost 99% of the time... is it another process that's using up the CPU? Or am I missing something here...

Christof,
Does this condition arise randomly, or do you know what to do to provoke it? I am still unable to reproduce it, but I swear I saw the same thing 3-4 times after I installed rc3. It was before I knew how to sample it, so I cannot claim it was the same, but I saw the 100% cpu load by the idle process -- by idle I mean undisturbed by user events. It is interesting that it did go down substantially while I used it, and returned to 100% as soon as I left it alone.
Also, I suspect that it is caused by something outside X11, because whenever this condition arose, restarting the server did not help; it went away only after system restart.
