What browsers are you using, and how many tabs do you use in each. My
experience is that piggy browsers like Firefox and Chrome/Chromium make
X swell up. When X' usage exceeds 90%, do killall -9 on all web
browsers. Most of the time the problem subsides.

Is anything related in the log files?

$ less /var/log/Xorg.0.log
$ journalctl -b
$ dmesg | less
$ less ~/.xsession-errors

[xubuntu-users] Xorg with 99% CPU

2018-10-19 Thread Ulli Horlacher
I am running xubuntu 16.04.
Xorg eats up one CPU:

top - 19:24:43 up 10 min,  4 users,  load average: 1.18, 1.03, 0.62
Tasks: 297 total,   2 running, 294 sleeping,   0 stopped,   1 zombie
%Cpu(s): 11.7 us,  1.2 sy,  0.0 ni, 87.0 id,  0.0 wa,  0.0 hi,  0.0 si,  0.0 st
KiB Mem : 16256752 total, 14530104 free,   404704 used,  1321944 buff/cache
KiB Swap: 16777212 total, 16777212 free,0 used. 15464540 avail Mem

  PID USER  PR  NIVIRTRESSHR S  %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
 3095 framstag  20   0  218696  47332  36188 R  99.7  0.3   9:15.09 Xorg

When I do a "strace -p 3095" the system freezes and I have to press the
power button :-(

Any idea what is going on and how to debug it?
