Public bug reported:

I'm using both Xubuntu 11.04 and 11.10, and the "Screensaver" settings
(accessed through System Settings) are very slow, and apparently read or
write from the hard disk at each click, whether trying to change a
setting or to do anything else. Just try moving the time for the
screensaver to become active by several  minutes quickly and watch your
disk activity indicator LED. There is no reason the disk should need to
be accessed with each click.
