Hi,

I made some tests trying to get a solution and I found some interesting things about this problem:

If I launch gnome-terminal as root, works fine, no delays, no big resources are used.

I do a strace gnome-terminal (as normal user) and I see that there are a lot calls to poll & read / write functions (4 calls / second)

read(3, "\2$\273\3nB\327\2\255\1\0\0\4\0\340\2\0\0\0\0g\4\262\3\372\3/\3\0\0\1\0", 4096) = 32 read(3, 0x904b64, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)
write(14, "\r", 1)                      = 1
poll([{fd=3, events=POLLIN|POLLOUT}], 1, -1) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLOUT}]) writev(3, [{"\22\0\7\0\4\0\340\2\213\1\0\0\6\0\0\0 \2\366\0\1\0\0\0nB\327\2", 28}, {NULL, 0}, {"", 0}], 3) = 28 read(3, 0x904b64, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) poll([{fd=4, events=POLLIN}, {fd=3, events=POLLIN}, {fd=6, events=POLLIN}, {fd=9, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=11, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=12, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=13, events=POLLIN|POLLPRI}, {fd=14, events=POLLIN}], 8, 600) = 1 ([{fd=3, revents=POLLIN}]) read(3, "\34\0\274\3\4\0\340\2\213\1\0\0oB\327\2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 4096) = 32 read(3, 0x904b64, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) read(3, 0x904b64, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable) read(3, 0x904b64, 4096) = -1 EAGAIN (Resource temporarily unavailable)

        This is a normal work for a idle terminal ?

        If this is the problem, I could attach a full strace log
