Hi Adrien,
  This can be rather difficult to find the cause of; I've seen it once on one 
of my machine, and it turned out to be an application I was using that was 
doing a lot to the X server for no good reason.  (It was animating a little 
icon but was trying to be too clever).

  Run top and watch what is taking the cpu, then close each application and see 
if it drops, to try and find out what is using
the cpu.

Dave
