I just installed sid and kde 3.1.1. I noticed a weird flickering every time I displayed my home directory in konqueror. On a hunch, I selected the show hidden files option and noticed that a ridiclulously large number of font.cache files werebeing created and deleted on an almost constant basis. Since the creation of files is a slightly expensive process, I'm pretty sure that this is having an effect on my performance. Most of the files are empty (0 bytes). Why is this happening and how do I stop it?
