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 viewer for flash, and plasma would start behaving. Can you test this and see if there is a

Well ... The fact to remove the Note *seems* to make my X feel better. I still get 70% on X and 25% on plasma-desktop at start (with or without locking the applets). But when I fix the situation[1], I get 20%-0% (ok) and the bug it seems not to get back. That information has to be taken with some

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. Since I don't know how to trigger the bug, I'm forced to test each
