Well guy, since this morning (18 of October), I have no more problems.
Please, don't close the bug : I still have to check on my other computer.
Moreover, I created yesterday night a second activity on which I put
almost all my plasmoids... In particular, the notification tray, the

I found that the fact to modify the size of the panel sometimes fixes
the bug. Also the fact to add a new panel and remove it makes X and
plasma-desktop back to a natural use of CPU.
I append these into the list

Each time I have seen this, I initially thought it was plasma. In my
case, at least, plasma was showing as the culprit, but in fact it was
the nsplugin viewer for flash causing the hiccup. I kill the plugin

Can you test this and see if there is a

It turns out that I was maybe too enthusiastic last time. Removing all
the applets but the taskbar does not makes my situation any better.
However, I think that I found a quite reliable trigger for the bug :) :)

I'm performing some tests. Up to now, the fact to remove the Note
applet seems to fix the problem in the sense that X is stabilized under
20% of CPU (it's in the same time more than the normal and much less
than what I usually have) while plasma-widget stays at 0%, which is
perfect.
However, I'm
I also have View of a directory (the one which is by default). This one does
not seem to pose problem.
If my X goes again to 60% without the Note, I will try to remove the view of
a directory and putting back the Note.

Confirming due to comments, however I do not have this issue. Is this
reproducible in Karmic with KDE 4.3.1 at all? Thanks!

I still have the issue with Karmic-Alpha (KDE). Precision : X takes a
lot from the CPU in the same time. Typically 40-40 between X and plasma-
desktop (total between 60 and 90%).
I'm willing to give more informations if one says what I have to do.

Could you all please list the plasma applets you have running? I have a

It's the same for me, plasma-desktop process uses more and more CPU%,
switching the widgets block works for a short time, now CPU temperature
has reached 93°C... I've to switch to Gnome.

I would also like to add that this happens regardless if I enable
desktop effects or not. And that the fix suggested above of unlocking
and then re-locking widgets does not seem to do anything for me. How
disappointing...

I am having the same problem. I usually just end up killing plasma-
desktop and restarting it. This probably happens 10x throughout the day.
I have not seen the same problem on my other desktop. This problem
started when I upgraded to KDE 4.3.0.
