w.r.t the 100% CPU when idle, it doesn't seem to be doing anything. At
least, an strace doesn't show much, and nothing is logged. It just seems
to be looping over this:
sigreturn() = ? (mask now ~[INT QUIT ABRT KILL TERM
STOP RTMIN])

Make sure you pass -f to strace. Beagle is a heavily threaded program.
