 I have no idea.  On my Aruba, I noticed some months ago that the
cpu window in icewm's taskbar had red along the bottom, and
occasionally a lot od red - normally it is black background, with
an increasing height of green for CPU activity, so all green if all
cores are busy.  That box does not get a lot of use, and I initially
guessed that periodic fcron jobs (makewhatis, etc) just happened to
be running because it had been a long time since I last used it.

 Then in December or January I fired up 'top' and saw huge
percentages for Xorg.bin when the system is idle (just a couple of
terms open).  Checked that my other two desktops were ok (the R600
Turks uses a few percent, the intel uses a tiny percent).
