Yea. As MOLNAR Ingo pointed out in this thread, there is a pretty
big hit when xosview reads the proc filesystem for memory stats. This
is why it only attempts to do this once a second or so. So, xosview
is in effect watching it's own contibution to the processor state.
When xosview is not visible or iconified, it suspends reading from
the proc filesystem and the blips should not be there. Of course, you
wont be able to see this with xosview :).
