- why is xwsh consuming so much cpu time on an essentially static
- screen ? top/gr_top reports it takes 68% of cpu time with
- out any obvious activity on the screen.
-
- I would assume that if there is intensive user drawing, but
- no interaction with the window manager, xwsh activity would be low.
- When the screen is quite, I would also hope for low xwsh activity.
-
- Perhaps someone can explain what xwsh is doing all the time ?
-
- Cheers!
