Reinstalled my computer with a Jaunty live cd. No kded4 with 100% cpu problem
at all.
But behavior in KDE is pretty slow: I noticed my Xorg often rising around 90%.
It's a bulk installation, with Intrepid weren't any problem, so there should
still be a bug crawling somewhere...

Kubuntu
Allright, sorry for flooding:
- the kded4 pushing cpu to 100% only happened once, after the upgrade
8.10--9.04. So low might be the right priority.
The problem of lag in KDE was linked to Xorg and the ati drivers:
Following links helped me find out:
- I tried to remove all widgets but it didn't have an influence, kded4/xorg
still used 100% cpu.
- I tried a renice 0 on kded4, but the system crashed before I could notice
anything
After the reboot, kded4 was back to normal cpu usage: I tried a renice 15
(which I hope is the right default
I just updated from Kubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 and I'm fully hit, I barely can
use the computer: kded4 (and Xorg) use 100% CPU.

Same problem on a fresh installed Kubuntu 8.10 (2.6.27-11-generic): I
couldn't rip an audio CD to MP3 using K3B.
I installed lame and it still didn't work.
As mentioned above, the workaround solved the problem:
-- Edit the lame settings in k3b and enable both Swap Byte Order and Write
Wave
