Good, so that might bring the idle GUI down to 33 wakeups/s.

I'm puzzled by the strace output, which seems to have a 3 KHz poll() 
loop going on.  There's no timeout there, just poll() being woken up by 
incoming socket data.  Maybe I'm reading it wrong, or the loop sometimes 
takes much longer than ~ 0.0003s.
