    What X driver are you using Mike? Are you on a builtin video chipset
    using mobo shared memory? I'm running the nvidia 9755 driver here with a
    jaton nvidia 6200-256 card here, and YES I KNOW that taints the kernel,
    but x is using on average, 1.3% of the cpu. Its sitting at a -1 nice and
    it continues to give usable results here in the face of a make -j8
    running in another shell.

    With figures (over 50% cpu to X) like that, its no wonder you're
    squawking about it.

    An old phrase comes to mind "Physician, Heal thyself". Your X is broken
    and you are trying to blame everything but X. Fix your hardware and
    drivers.
