yesterday I had the same problem. I found that there were a lot of
kioslaves doing nothing special (there was, or there should not have been,
no requests fro my part and I was the only user). I guess was that... but
I hadn't so much patience: I tried to kill'em all, but couldn't. 5 minutes
later I was hard-rebooting my machine. Luckly there were no errors in the
fs...
