Well, the last weekend a couple of friends met to configure our laptops
(some iBooks some PCs) and we saw that behaviour when some of them were
adding the LTallmail desklet. After he configured the desklet (with the POP
server, user and pass) the CPU felt down to 1 or 2% as usual. This is what
we call "The paranormal effects of computer-science".
By the way. What particular feature of Gnome does the gdesklets daemon
require? It would be nice to have it under Xfce4 with no gnome daemons
running around.
