Okay, I'm an id10t. I was looking at top ssh'd into my wife's comp.

Anyhow, it turns out it is X which is leaking. That reminds me, the other day I
sat down to see that my CPU was maxed out. Seeing that I was not in the process
of screwing the MPAA at the time, I ran top and saw that X was using 100% CPU.

I recall posts describing similar symptoms, but I cannot find them in the
archive. Anyone have any info on this?

Thanks!
