Hi,
I have this REALLY weird problem right now. My whole X has suddenly
started to be really slow. KDE used to be really snappy and nice to
use, now it's really sluggish and slow to respond.
I have really run out of ideas where this is coming from. I tried
finding out what processes might hog the processor with ksysguard,
top and ps but I had absolutely no luck. The only thing that ever
uses about 30-40% processor time is X.
The only weird thing was this, from the output of top:
1636 root 5 -10 187m 55m 133m S 7.5 11.0 10:09.30 XFree86
Why would X have used so much processor time, even though the machine
is just up for two hours?
I tried shutting down all unnecessary daemons, everything. Nothing
improves this sluggishness. I don't know exactly when this started,
it certainly wasn't associated with an update.
I run Debian unstable with all the newest packages, including KDE
3.2.1 and XFree86 4.3.
Does anybody have a suggestion here? I'm really running out of
ideas... Thanks in advance,
Magnus
