kded4 endless CPU loop
Hi!
We had this before, but I am unsure about the current status.
Now I had several X crashes and wondered why the fan of my ThinkPad T520
was going wild (still very quiet, but hot air).

I had another occasion with about 4 of those and 2 nepomukservice
processes competing for the CPU.
What I would like to know: Did anyone do anything about it? If not, I
think I would look for upstream bug reports and file it there.
Google gives a lot of hits for "kded4 endless cpu loop" but its difficult to
tell which are still current.
I have to kill -9 these processes as noted previously here and this has
started with KDE 4.6.
Ciao,
